The correct answer is:
a positron is emitted when proton converts to a neutron.

The reaction can be described as following:
₁¹p (proton) → ₀¹n (neutron) + ₁°e (positron or ₁⁰β)
Positron is an antiparticle of a β particle (₋₁°β), which means it has an oposite charge to it, but same mass.

2. A cell with few energy needs would most
sattari [20]

A Cell with few energy needs would most likely contain a small number of Mitochondria.

  • All cells require energy to function, but cells typically have significant energy needs that can only be met by the mitochondria, the cell's powerhouse.
  • They transform glucose into ATP, a chemical with a huge energy storage capacity.
  • Muscles have a large number of mitochondria, allowing them to react rapidly and powerfully to the body's ongoing need for energy.
  • Macromolecules, defunct cell components, and microbes are all digested by lysosomes.
  • Vacuoles are typically tiny and aid in the sequestration of waste.
  • The ribosome, an intercellular structure consisting of both RNA and protein, is where a cell produces new proteins.

Therefore out of all these cell organelles, the cell has fewer mitochondria for less energy need.
