The answer is A. planning a hiking trip
A topographical map would not help studying plant growth over time unless you are looking for a better altitude to plant said plants.
A topographical map would not help studying rainfall for one year unless your location was <em>really</em> so high or low that it affected your weather
And most of all, a topographical map would not be useful for planning a cuise across the Atlantic Ocean because the elevation of the sea is zero!
A topographical map <em>would</em> be useful for planning a hiking trip because there are many factors and details that a hike should have. Which includes height, distance, paths, and elevation.

Oxygen-16 is the atom in question.
- Atomic number: 8.
- Mass number: 16.
<h3>Explanation</h3>
The superscript of the ion says "2-". That means that the ion here carries a charge of -2.
- The charge is negative, meaning that there are more electrons (which are negative) than protons (which are positive) in that ion.
- The size of the charge is 2. There are two more electrons than protons in that ion.
There are 10 electrons in total in that ion. There are two more electrons than protons. That means that there are 10 - 2 = 8 protons in that ion.
The atomic number of an atom is the same as its number of protons. The atomic number of X is 8.
The atomic number determines the element. Atomic number 8 is oxygen. Thus element X is oxygen.
Mass number is the sum of number of protons and neutrons in an atom. 8 + 8 = 16 for this atom.
Answer:
<h2>isotope is a variants of a particular chemical element which differ in neutron number, and consequently in nucleon number.All isotopes of a given element have the same number of protons but different number of neutrons in each atom.</h2>
