Answer:

The correct answer would be 57.

Atomic number is defined as the total number of protons in an atom. Thus, the number of protons in element X would be 29.

In addition, the mass number is defined as the sum of neutrons  and protons present in an atom.

Therefore, the sum of the number of neutrons and protons in an element X would be 86.

Thus, the number of neutrons = Mass number- the number of protons  

⇒86-29

⇒57

Hence, the number of neutrons would be equal to 57.

<h2><u>Answer</u>: </h2>

Element x will have 57 nutrons .

<u>Atomic number</u>: is the total number of protons.

<u>Atomic mass</u>: is the  number of nutron + number of protons .

                                     (57+29=86)

<u>Calculation of nutrons:</u>  The mass number of an atom equals the number of protons plus the number of neutrons. Rearranging the equation, the number of neutrons equals the mass number minus the atomic number.

Number or nutrons = mass number - atomic number

                                       86-29 = 57

Describe the flow of blood in the human body, including each chamber of the heart. Explain how the blood changes as it moves thr
Mama L [17]
<span>    How does pulmonary circulation work? In my example below, we will start with the blood not reaching the heart yet. The heart beats around 75 beats a minute. Deoxygenated blood is in the veins, going to the heart. Note that veins will always carry deoxygenated blood, excluding the pulmonary veins. The deoxygenated blood goes into the heart through the superior or inferior vena cava, and goes into the right atrium. It then gets pumped into the right ventricle, and gets pumped through the pulmonary arteries to the lungs to get oxygenated. The blood, now oxygenated, comes back to the heart through the pulmonary veins, into the left atrium. The blood gets pumped from the left atrium to the left ventricle, where it gets pumped through the aorta to all of the body systems. The red blood cells travel through capillaries, which is where most  of the gas exchange occurs between body cells and red blood cells. Red blood cells have no nuclei. When the red blood cells are no longer red, but blue due to lack of oxygen, they go back to the heart to get pumped to the lungs, and enter the heart through the superior or inferior vena cava. The cycle starts over. Just like the veins, arteries always carry oxygenated blood, excluding the pulmonary arteries. Also, the right side of the heart will have deoxygenated blood, or blue blood, and the left side of the heart will have oxygenated blood. </span>

Answer: I would say ice

Explanation:  Ph does affect enzymes if it is to acidic it will not break apart toxic chemicals
