Answer;

Atomic number Tc = 43 , which is equivalent to the number of protons in nucleus.

Number neutrons = mass number - number of protons = 99 - 43 = 56 neutrons .

Number of electrons = number of protons - charge = 43 - (+7) = 36 electrons

Explanation;

-Atomic number is the number of proton in the nucleus of an atom of a given element. Mass number is the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom. A neutral atom has equal number of protons and neutrons.

-Isotopes are atoms of the same element with the same atomic number but different mass number.

Mendel’s law of independent assortment says that the inheritance of one trait is not influenced by inheritance of another trait.
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

In meiosis I, the arrangement of any homologous chromosome along the center plane ( forgot the name for this) is independent of the arrangement of the other homologous chromosomes. There is thus equal probability for the chromosome to be in either of the two daughter cells after meiosis I. This is observed in meiosis 2 metaphase as well where the arrangement of each Sister chromatid about the ‘center plane’ is independent of each other. This independence observed during metaphase of meiosis I and meiosis II allows for chromatids to be in either gamete formed in equal probability, not affecting by other chromatids thus inheritance of one trait is not affected by the inheritance of another trait.
