Explanation:
Isotopes:
₁₅³¹P and ₁₅³²P
Given parameters:
₁₅³¹P ₁₅³²P
Mass number = 31 32
Atomic number = 15 15
The two atoms are isotopes. Now let us derive numbers of their subatomic particles
₁₅³¹P ₁₅³²P
Protons 15 15
Electrons 15 15
Neutrons (31-15) = 16 (32-15) = 17
Because they are isotopes, they differ in the number of neutrons alone.
Isotopy is the existence of two or more atoms of the same element having the same atomic number but different mass numbers due to the differences in the number of their neutrons.
We clearly see that the mass number and number of neutrons pertaining to the atom differs. This makes them isotopes.

Some may use car pooling or mass transit like buses. But too many want the luxury and convenience of coming and going on their own terms.
IMHO car pooling and mass transit needs to be used more to reduce environmental harm.
Ecological succession is the process of change in the species structure of an ecological community over time. The time scale can be decades, or even millions of years after a mass extinction
