<u>Answer:</u>

<em>B. Subduction </em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Two oceanic plate met each other to form a boundary called as convergent plate boundary. When two oceanic plates collides with each other, it makes one plate to be subducted over the other. If two plates are of same density, the massive or the larger one among them will be subducted beneath the smaller plate. High velocity moving plate will be subducted below the lower velocity moving plate. Subduction zone is otherwise known as Benioff zone.

Choose the 2 reasons some atoms are radioactive. a. the number of additional neutrons of an isotope is too large b. the nucleus
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

The correct options are: a. the number of additional neutrons of an isotope is too large; d. the number of additional neutrons of an isotope is too small

Explanation:

The chemical elements that have the same number of protons in the nucleus but different number of neutrons are known as isotopes. Isotopes can be stable or unstable.

The isotope having an unstable nucleus, due to the presence of additional neutrons in the nucleus of the atom, is known as a radioisotope.

Also, chemical elements that have atomic number greater than 83 have unstable nuclei and thus they are called radioisotopes.
