Answer 1

We would be happy if you shared your thoughts with us and tell us why you answered as you did.

Answer 2

i am just simply stuck on this question

Answer 3

I suggest you look in your text and notes under the three men. Most text discuss the findings and something about how the findings came about. Most texts then have something like a summary at the end of the discussion. Those point plus what you have read about each person will fit one of the statements in the question. If this question leaves you "stuck" that means you just haven't digested the material and you need to go over it again Iand a third time if necessary).

Answer 4

contains negativley charged particles
