Look I am not even close to a genius in this type of stuff but the leaves help collect energy and sunlight for the plant to live off of during the winter. It basically needs them for processing and helping them with their food. Also food is stored in every pine needles mitochondrion or the powerhouse of their cell structure. In the mitochondrion their is things like chloropasts. These are like the energy or food for the cell. So when the tree cant draw nutrients from its roots or soil anymore all the excess things stored in the pine needles will help the tree survive.
If an object has a higher density than the fluid it is in (fluid can mean liquid or gas), it will sink. If it has a lower density, it will float. Density is determined by an object's mass and volume. If two objects take up the same volume, but have one has more mass, then it also has a higher density.
Answer: The nuclide symbol of X is 
Explanation:
The given nuclear reaction is a type of alpha decay process. In this process, the nucleus decays by releasing an alpha particle. The mass number of the nucleus is reduced by 4 units and atomic number is also decreased by 2 units. The particle released is a helium nucleus.
The general equation representing alpha decay process is:
For the given equation :
As the atomic number and mass number must be equal on both sides of the nuclear equation:
Thus the nuclide symbol of X is
On the periodic table it is the number on the bottom of the element.
<span>If you know the amount of neutrons you can add it to the number of protons to find the atomic mass NUMBER, which is a good approximate of the atomic mass. </span>
Hey there !
