We understand that nuclei heavier than hydrogen are made through nuclear fusion. The most common "machines" that operate on this principle are stars. People and other living things, and most everything on the Earth, including the Earth itself, has "star stuff" as its basis. Stellar nucleosynthesis is the creation of helium and all the heavier nuclei from hydrogen. Note that only elements up through iron are created in "normal" fusion. It takes a super nova to create the trans-iron elements. It was the late Carl Sagan who used to so often say that we are made of star stuff.
What else can I help you with?
What is made of protons and neutrons but not electrons?
Atomic nuclei (and alpha particales, but these are exactly the same as Helium nuclei)
Is most of the space occupied by a thin gold film taken up by the nuclei?
No. Ernest Rutherford's experiments showed that the majority of the thin gold film is made up of empty space.
Does each element have its own type of atom?
no Yes, the number of protons and electrons is different for each chemical element and the number of neutrons is different for each isotope.
How much matter does a new born baby contain?
On average, a newborn baby weighs around 7.5 pounds (3.4 kg). This weight is made up of various components including water, fat, muscle, bone, and organs. In terms of matter, the baby contains a combination of elements such as carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and others.
Is all atomic nuclei positive?
Yes, though the overall charge of the entire atom is neutral due to the electrons orbiting it. If the atom becomes an ion by the removal or addition of electrons, its overall charge changes. But yes, the nucleus is made up of protons and neutrons. Protons are positive, neutrons are neutral.
What is a newborn baby's skeleton made up of?
Cartilage.
What is made of protons and neutrons but not electrons?
Atomic nuclei (and alpha particales, but these are exactly the same as Helium nuclei)
Much of a newborn baby's skeleton is made of what bone?
Most of it is cartilage.
What is most of the newborn baby made of?
At birth the baby's body is made up of about 78% water. This drops to around 65% during the first year.
What is a bassinet?
A bassinet is a newborn baby's bed, typically one made out of reeds or straw.
What is a bassinette?
A bassinette is a newborn baby's bed, typically one made out of reeds or straw.
Is neutron a atom?
No, neutrons are only a part of an atom. Neutrons are found in an atom's nuclei, along with protons. They have no electric charge and thus are neutral.An atom is made up of protons (+), neutrons (0), and electrons (-).
How do make a passafier that is made of clay?
A pacifier made of clay would not be good for a newborn baby... It should be made of something soft
What is the skeleton of a newborn baby made of?
A newborn baby's skeleton is primarily made of cartilage, which gradually hardens into bone over time as the baby grows. This process, known as ossification, enables the baby's skeleton to become stronger and more durable as they develop.
Is it safe to use Johnson's baby wash on a newborn?
yes because it's made for them its sensitive enough for their skin
The nucleus of an atom is made of what?
There are just two things that make up atomic nuclei, and those are, protons and neutrons. All nuclei have these, except for the hydrogen one isotope which contains only one proton and no neutrons.
What percentage of a baby is water?
About 75% of a newborn baby's weight is made up of water. By the time they reach one year of age, this percentage decreases to around 60-65%.
