Mass number = protons + neutrons

If you have the # of protons and the mass #, subtract the number of protons from the mass number to get the number of neutrons.

If you have the number of neutrons and the mass number, subtract the number of neutrons from the mass number to get the number of protons.

<h3>Mass number:</h3>

The element's mass number is nothing but the sum of total number of neutrons and protons present in the element's nucleus. For example, if the mass number of nitrogen is 14, it means that there are 7 number of protons and 7 number of neutrons in the nucleus of the nitrogen.

The relationship between the number of proton and the neutron with that of mass number is that, the latter gives the count of the former. On contrary, the atomic number denotes the weight of the atom.

Answer:

The eukaryotic cell nucleus. Visible in this diagram are the ribosome-studded double membranes of the nuclear envelope, the DNA (complexed as chromatin), and the nucleolus. Within the cell nucleus is a viscous liquid called nucleoplasm, similar to the cytoplasm found outside the nucleus.

I need help please . I can’t figure out how to do this
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

You write what you think is going to happen based off those questions. For example, on a, you could put something such as "If I eat 1 lbs of candy I will gain __ pounds." You can change the sentence around to make it your preference.

What differs among DNA structures of different species?
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

D) the arrangement of the nucleotides within genes

Explanation:

De-oxy ribo nucleic acid that is basically a polymer of nucleotides. Nucleotides are composed of three basic units: a de-oxyribose sugar unit, a phosphate group and nitrogenous bases that can be Adenine, Gunanine, Thymine and Cytosine.Adenine always pairs with Thymine and Guanine always pairs with Cytosine.

This is a universal composition of DNA in each and every living organism. The genes are a segment of DNA that contain specific sequence of nucleotides and encode for a specific trait of organism such as height, weight, eye color etc. The sequence of nucleotides expresses the trait in the form of protein product during the process of Translation. The products of translation are amino acids and every amino acids encode for a specific protein  in almost  all living organisms.

So, what differs in the specie is the sequence of nucleotides in genes. Infact this is the nucleotide sequence which brings evolution in organism and organisms evolve to form new specie with the passage of time. One major cause of change in nucleotide sequence is mutations due to which the organisms change with time.

Suppose the sequence of nucleotide of specific gene in organism A is

AAGGGGAAATTT

However in other specie organism B of same specie is:

TAGGGGAAATTT

This means only mutation of one base changed the gene in organism B and also its product called protein.

Hope it help!
