The mass number, also known as an atomic mass number or nucleon number, refers to the total number of neutrons and protons (in a combination known as nucleons) in an atomic nucleus. It determines the atomic mass of atoms. However, while calculating the mass number, the small contribution of mass from electrons is ignored.  

Mass number is equal to Number of protons + Number of neutrons  

Mass number = 11 + 7 = 18.  

Hence, the correct answer is 18.

When not enough oxygen is available to cells during rigorous exercise, muscle cells must convert pyruvate to __________ to gener
Kipish [7]

The correct answer is: A) lactic acid.

During the exercise, muscle cells use anaerobic respiration in order to make enough energy in the form of ATP. Anaerobic respiration doesn’t require oxygen, but glucose is broken down to produce energy. Glucose is broken down to pyruvate in the process called glycolysis. Next step is convert of pyruvate into lactic acid (or lactate).

During the exercise, the oxygen level in muscle cells decreases, which results in anaerobic respiration of the cells.
