Answer the following question given this paragraph: The symbol represents an electron whose charge corresponds to and since it has no nucleons, . It must be carefully noted that the electron released during beta decay is NOT an orbital electron but an electron whose origin was in the nucleus. The process has one neutron becoming one proton and one electron and the electron being emitted as a beta particle. Since a neutron has been lost AND a proton has been gained, the mass number does not change. The atomic number, however, has increased one due to the gain of a proton. Therefore, as a result of beta decay, the daughter product will have the same mass number as the parent and an atomic number one greater than the parent. Q: The electron released during beta decay is not an orbital electron but an electron whose origin was where? A:
OPTIONS:
- outside the nucleus
- connected to the nucleus
- orbiting the nucleus
- in the nucleus

Answer: in the nucleus

Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: During sexual reproduction, two haploid gametes join in the process of fertilization to produce a diploid zygote.

Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: As we studied in our chapter on the periodic table, we saw that elements share a number of important properties with other elements found in the same group. The chemical behavior of a given element is largely dictated by the configuration of its valence electrons. Many elements have a tendency to gain or lose electrons in order to achieve a more stable configuration. When a neutral atom gains or loses electrons, it becomes an ion. In this lesson, we will look at ways to predict what type of ion a given element is likely to form. Q: What happens when a neutral atom gains or loses electrons? A:

OPTIONS:
- it loses protons
- it gains protons
- it loses neutrons
- it becomes an ion

A: it becomes an ion

Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Synthetic carbon polymers are produced in labs or factories. Plastics are common examples of synthetic carbon polymers. You are probably familiar with the plastic called polyethylene. All of the plastic items pictured in the Figure below are made of polyethylene. It consists of repeating monomers of ethylene (C 2 H 4 ). Structural formulas for ethylene and polyethylene are also shown in the Figure below .
