Answer:La diferencia entre el carbono-12 y carbono-14 es el número de neutrones en cada átomo. El número dado después de que el nombre de átomo (carbono) indica el número de protones y neutrones en un átomo o ion. Los átomos de ambos isótopos de carbono contienen 6 protones. Los átomos de carbono-12 tienen 6 neutrones , mientras que los átomos de carbono-14 contienen 8 neutrones.

Explanation:Un  átomo neutro tendría el mismo número de protones y electrones, por lo que un átomo neutro de carbono-12 o carbono-14 tendría 6 electrones.

A pesar de que los neutrones no llevan una carga eléctrica, que tienen una masa comparable a la de los protones, por lo que los diferentes isótopos tienen diferente peso atómico. Carbon-12 es más ligero que el carbono-14.

The cingulate cortex is a subcortical structure above the corpus callosum. its anterior (forward) segment participates in ____,
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer;

Decision making and emotion; memory and visual processing

Explanation;

Cingulate Cortex  is a subcortical structure above the corpus callosum. its anterior (Forward) segment participates in decision making and emotion, and its posterior (rear) segment participates in memory and visual processing.

-The forward 2/3 of this structure, the ACC: anterior cingulate cortex- participates along with the hypothalamus in the control of the autonomic nervous system (also roles in decision making, emotion, anticipation of reward, and empathy)

The rear third, PCC: Posterior cingulate cortex participates in memory and visual processing.
