The mass of the atom is contained mainly in the nucleus itself. The nucleus is composed of a number of protons and neutrons which are positively charged and neutrally charged sub particle components. The nucleus are surrounded by electrons.

The mass of an atom is contained primarily in its NUCLEUS.
An atom is made up of three sub particles, which are proton, neutrons and electrons. The proton and the neutrons are located in the nucleus of the atom while the electron are located outside the nucleus where they move about in continuous motion around the nucleus. The proton and the neutrons, which are located in the nucleus have the same relative mass of 1, which has been estimated to be about 2,000 times bigger than that of the electron, which has a relative mass of 0.0005. This shows that, the mass of an atom is located primarily in its nucleus. <span />

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

Tortoises with better adaptations in shell shape and leg length were selected to exploit the food resources on each island and, thus, they were capable of having more offspring.

Explanation:

Natural selection can be defined as the process of differential survival and reproduction in a given environment due to differences in their phenotypic traits. Thus, these phenotypic traits are selected to be better adapted to their environment. As a consequence of natural selection, organisms evolve by changing their phenotype frequencies over many generations. In this case, phenotypic differences are expressed as variations in shell shape and leg length, which are adaptive traits that were selected on each island.
