Answer:

Option (2).

Explanation:

Rutherford explains the model of atoms. According to him, protons and neutrons are present inside the nucleus and electrons revolve around the nucleus in a orbit.

The nucleus is made of proton and neutron. Most of the atom mass is located inside the nucleus. The alpha particles are deflected back from the center of the atoms that contains positively charged protons.

Thus, the correct answer is option (2).

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

The correct answer is: it would create a polyploidy.

Explanation:

Polyploidy consists of an organism or a cell having more than 2 pairs of chromosomes, which in most species (including humans) is abnormal and not compatible with life.

An organism with 3 sets of chromosomes -69 in total- (instead of 46) has a triploidy. In humans, this happens when there's an extra haploid set from one of the parents.

An organism with 4 sets of chromosomes -92 in total- has tetraploidy.

These polyploidies result in miscarriage.
