Answer:

a) an atom that has either gained or lost electron(s)

Explanation:

A neutral atom is an atom that has equal numbers of protons and electrons, its charge is neutral. These atoms are not stable (exceptions are the noble gases), so they need to gain, lose or share electrons to be stable.

When an atom gains or loses electrons, it became an ion, and its charge will not be more neutral. If it gains electrons (which are negative particles) it will have a negative charge and will be called anion; if it loses electrons, it will have a positive charge and will be called cation.

The diagram shows four different locations in an atom.
Ainat [17]

Answer:

The answer is 1 and 4.

Explanation:

Mass is most concentrated in the nucelus of an atom. Therefore, if you are looking to find the area with the least mass, go outside of the nucelus. Points one and four are the furthest outside of the nucleus.

A cell in the leaf of a corn plant contains more chloroplasts than a cell in the stem of a corn plant. Based on this observation
Alik [6]

Answer:

This question lacks options, the options are:

A). synthesizes more sugar

B). has a higher chromosome count

C). produces fewer proteins

D). uses less carbon dioxide

The answer is A

Explanation:

The chloroplast is an organelle present in the cells of photosynthetic organisms. It is the site where photosynthesis, which is the production of food (sugars) from sunlight energy, occurs.

According to this question, a cell in the leaf of a corn plant contains more chloroplasts than a cell in the stem of the same corn plant. Based on this observation, it can be inferred that the LEAF CELLS WILL SYNTHESIZE MORE SUGARS THAN THE STEM CELL because the more the chloroplast, the higher the photosynthetic rate and subsequently the higher the amount of sugar produced.
