Answer:
In the n=1 energy level, the atom has 2 electrons
Explanation:
Electrons orbit the nucleus of an atom in multiple rings (energy levels). The first ring of the electron can only hold 2 electrons. After that, electrons are added to the second ring. Excluding the first ring, all other rings can hold a maximum of 8 electrons.
For example, Oxygen is an atom with 6 electrons. The first energy level contains 2 electrons, and the second energy level contains 4 electrons. The second energy level has room for up to 4 more electrons.
In your example of an atom with 15 electrons, there would be 2 electrons in the first ring, 8 electrons in the second ring, and 5 electrons in the third and final ring.
To summarize, all atoms have a first energy level containing 2 electrons, and all other energy levels can contain 8 electrons. This is true no matter the number of electrons.
Both food chains and food webs contain plants and animals so it is not A.
Food chains separate by trophic level not food webs so it is not B
***Food chains show energy flow by each trophic level and food webs do not therefore it is C***
It is A: a population is increasing, moving toward its carrying capacity during both phases
hop that was helpfully
