Atomic number of an atom equals to the number of nucleus in the nucleus of the atom. Therefore, the answer is 74.

The proton of an element is never changed. No matter if it's an atom or ion. It's like an ID number for an element. It defines the type of element. Don't mix up atomic number with mass number though, mass number is the total sum of of the number of protons and neutrons in an atom.

Theres one more subatomic particle in an atom, that is electrons. But since they're too light, they won't be counted in mass. Also, the number of electrons in an atom equals to the number of proton, also the atomic number. If the number of electrons is different, it's no longer an atom, but an ion.

Consider the models of cell reproduction. Evaluate the statements and select ALL that are NOT supported by the models.
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer and Explanation:

The cell division cycle is responsible for increasing and maintaining cell number and size. This cycle is an essential feature of living organisms. There are four phases of cell division mitotic phase (M phase), growth phase 1 (G1), growth phase 2 (G2), and synthesis phase (S). One phase of the cell cycle ends, and the other starts; this is named a phase transition—a unidirectional alteration in the cell cycle phases. During G1, G2, and S phase cell grows and during the M phase cell divides. There are two models of cell reproduction as the clock model and the domino model. The domino model implies that cell division phases must occur in a distinct order and at a definite time. The domino model recommends that the cell cycle events are independent, while the clock model shows that the effectiveness of mitosis entrance was not persuaded by other actions.
