In an alpha decay, an atom emits an alpha particle. An alpha particle consists of 2 protons and 2 neutrons: this means that during this kind of decay, the original atom loses 2 protons and 2 neutrons from its nucleus.
This also means that the atomic number Z of the element (the atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus) decreases by 2 units in the process, while the mass number A (the mass number is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons) decreases by 4 units.
Height and depth..... for sure....
You need to check the temperature of food being stored in a temperature-controlled environment every four hours. The process of changing a space's temperature is called temperature control.
Cooking food alone may not be enough to avoid food poisoning, though, if the bacteria in food are allowed to grow to large numbers. When the temperature is between 5°C and 63°C, bacteria can grow. The risk zone is the range between 5°C and 63°C.
Temperature control is a process where the passage of heat energy into or out of a space or substance is adjusted to achieve the desired temperature. This process involves measuring or otherwise detecting changes in the temperature of the space (and all of the objects contained therein) or of the substance.

The statement that is the most true regarding the states of matter is the first statement.
A. Most matter on Earth exists as a solid, liquid, or gas.
This is correct since most of the matter on Earth exists in those 3 states, meanwhile plasma is not a state that most of matter on earth is found in since it is mostly associated to stars and the external galactic regions.
Therefore, B is incorrect.
C is false, since almost of all of the matter on earth can transform and change through each of the 3 states of matter, solid, liquid, and gas.
D is false since most of the matter in universe is actually made out of plasma instead of a liquid. In fact, over 99% of the known universe's matter is said to consist of plasma.
