The kidneys are a pair of bean-shaped organs on each side of your spine<span>, under your ribs and behind your belly. Each kidney is about
4 or 5 inches long, roughly the size of a large fist. It goes to the
kidneys to extract water from the excretory system and put it back into the blood.
Kidneys filter your blood. They eliminate wastes, control the body's fluid
balance, and hang onto the right levels of electrolytes.
All of the blood in your body passes through them quite a few times a day.</span>
Answer:
I think the answer would be C
The correct answer is d. 8p+; 9n; 10e−
Oxygen exists in three isotopes ¹⁶O, ¹⁷O and ¹⁸O. The atomic number of oxygen is 8. It means its nuclei has 8 protons. The given is oxide⁻² anion. This means it has gained 2 electrons. Thus, oxide anion have 8 protons and 10 (8+2) electrons. The number of neutrons depends on the isotope, in this question mass number is given¹⁷O. The mass number is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus. Hence, number of neutrons oxide anion will be 17-8 = 9 neutrons.
A. It functions in the dispersal of the spores.
