When a large fissile atomic nucleus such as uranium-235 or plutonium-239 absorbs a neutron, it may undergo nuclear fission. The heavy nucleus splits into two or more lighter nuclei, (the fission products), releasing kinetic energy, gamma radiation, and freeneutrons
The number of protons in an atom is equal the atomic number (= 50)
The sum of the Neutrons and Protons is the Atomic Mass (=125)
Neutrons + Protons=125
Plug in for the protons (50)
Neutrons +(50)=125
Then, once solved, we have Neutrons = 75
Assuming the atom is NOT an ion, the amount of electrons is equal to the number of protons. (protons=electrons=50=50)
Therefore:
There are 50 electrons, 50 protons, and 75 electrons.

Answer:
In case of plants surface tension help to support the transpiration pull.
Explanation:
Surface tension is a force that hold the molecules in the surface to minimize the surface area.
During evaporation of excess amount of water from the stomata of leaves of plants by transpiration a surface tension is generated.
The generated surface tension helps to maintain the water column within the xylem tissue by the absorption of water from the soil by the roots.
