After reading the paragraph below, answer the questions that follow.

Uranium is a metallic element that is used in nuclear reactors and nuclear weapons. The vast majority of uranium found on Earth is in the form of uranium-238, an isotope with a mass number of 238, while the uranium that is used for nuclear reactors and weapons is uranium-235, an isotope with a mass number of 235.


What is the atomic difference between uranium-235 and uranium-238?
◦ Uranium-235 has three fewer electrons than uranium-238.
◦ Uranium-235 has three fewer protons than uranium-238.
◦ Uranium-235 has three fewer atoms than uranium-238.
◦ Uranium-235 has three fewer neutrons than uranium-238.

Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).

Chronic necrotizing aspergillosis has a slowly progressive process that, unlike invasive aspergillosis, does not spread to other organ systems or the blood vessels. It most often affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, spreading to surrounding tissue in the lungs. The disease often does not respond to conventionally successful treatments, and requires individualized therapies in order to keep it from becoming life-threatening.
