Answer:

For scientists, an element is defined by THE NUMBER OF PROTON IT CONTAINS.

Explanation:

In science, an element is defined as the simplest chemical substance that can not be further broken down by mean of chemical reaction. Each element is made up of atoms and the atoms have specific number of electrons and protons. The number of proton that an element has determine its atomic number. For neutral elements the number of proton and electron are always the same.

Today, many chemical elements have been identified and one of them is gold. Gold with chemical symbol Au has atomic number 79, this implies that the neutral gold has 79 electrons and 79 protons.

The scientific method or scientific analysis can be defined as the objective search for the truth. When a scientist does an experiment, it is essential that he reports every observation in the result, whether it is in uniformity with the experiment or not. Many scientific discoveries are made based on the unusual findings. The failure to report these unusual findings during an experiment might result in the loss of vital information.

Why do arteries need to be thick, muscular, and elastic?
Valentin [98]

blood flows at a high pressure, so if the arteries are thin and less muscular, the arteries can explode due to the pressure. so it needs thick and muscular properties so that it can withstand the increasing pressure of the flow of blood.

im not sure why it needs to be elastic. Hope it helped :)
