Answer: Electrons positioned closer to the nucleus have a greater attraction to the protons and are more likely to be discharged from the atom than electrons farther away.

Explanation: The electrons being negatively charged repel each other due to like charges. The protons being positively charged are attracted towards the negatively charged electrons.

The electrons which are near to nucleus are more tightly held by the protons and thus are more difficult to remove from the atom. The electrons which are far from the nucleus are less tightly held and are easily removed from the atom.

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An atom consists of three sub-atomic particles which are electrons, protons and neutrons.

As electrons are negatively charges, protons are positively charged and neutrons have no charge.

And since, electrons revolve around the nucleus (nucleus contains both protons and neutrons) so, there exists a strong force of attraction between the protons and electrons near the nucleus.

Hence, electrons near the nucleus are difficult to discharge.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement electrons positioned closer to the nucleus have a greater attraction to the protons and are more likely to be discharged from the atom than electrons farther away, does not accurately describe the forces that exist with an atom.

Excited about the fungus chemical's promise for treating cancer, you write up your experimental results and send the paper to a
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

All of them

Explanation:

The effect may not be real because we don't know if the results are reproducible: Peers can identify flaws in the experimental design because an experiment must have a clear design in order to be reproducible by other researchers or else they would not have scientific validity.

The treatment kills cancer cells, but it might simply be a poison that kills all cells—even normal cells: It is possible that in the design of the experiment carried out only cancer cells were used but it had not been performed in healthy cells, which would imply the possibility that the fungus kills all the cells.

Cell samples were taken from too few patients: This may be another mistake because when only a small sample is analyzed it is not certain if the fungi are the ones that kill the cancer cells or are other conditions of the analyzed patient.
