Changing the number of _would change an atom into an atom of a different element.

Hello! Your answer is protons.

There are three main parts of any atom. The proton, neutron, and electron. The proton and neutron form the center of the atom, or the nucleus, while the electrons float around them.

The protons determine the element. The number of protons is the atom's atomic number. For example, if there were 6 protons, the element would be the one with an atomic number of 6, or carbon. If there was just one, it would be hydrogen as that has an atomic number of 1.

When you change the number of neutrons, you get isotopes. This changes the atomic mass, as neutrons' main impact is mass. This also can mainly change stability. When you change the number of electrons, you change the charge of an atom. Electrons' main purpose is to bond + charge the atom. Electrons don't weigh much, they barely weigh anything. They instead give a negative charge to an atom (while the proton gives a positive)

Hope this helps!

Which of the following will NOT cause mass extinction?
aliya0001 [1]
Geological change will not cause a mass extinction, because it happens on a too big scale - on the scale of millions of years. During such long time, it is more likely that other causes will influence the survival of extinction of species, such as climate change or environmental disasters, and even if there is a small influence, it would not be significant next to other causes.

Mitochondria and chloroplasts
Grace [21]

Answer:

C. prokaryotic cells

Definitions

The Mitochondrion is an organelle in the cytoplasm of cells that functions in energy production.

Chloroplast is usually defined as a plastic containing chlorophyll.

Chlorophyll is the green coloring matter of leaves and plants, essential to the production in a bluish-black form, C55H72MgN405 (chlorophyll a), and a dark-green form, C55H70MgN4O6 (chlorophyll b).  

A root cell is one of the maestro cells in the human organic structure that has possible ability of turning into any of the more than the organic structure's 200 cell types.  

Prokaryotes is any cellular organism that has no nuclear membrane, no organelles in the cytoplasm except ribosomes, and has its genetic material in the form of single continuous strands forming coils or loops, characteristic of all organisms in the kingdom Monera, as the bacteria and blue-green algae.

<h2>What are the similarities and differences between prokaryotes, mitochondria, and chloroplasts?</h2>

Both mitochondria and heterotrophic prokaryotes, as well as chloroplasts and autotrophic prokaryotes, have a genetic structure (DNA with a circular double helix shape and the genes themselves), as well as comparable ribosome types. In reality, the endosymbiotic idea is based on these parallels.
