Yes, humans are made out of baryonic matter. Baryonic matter is composed of protons and neutrons, which make up the atomic nuclei that form the basic building blocks of matter, including the elements found in the human body.
If all the electrons in the human body were replaced with positrons, the positrons would annihilate with nearby electrons, creating gamma radiation. This would lead to immediate destruction of the body's molecular structure and result in a catastrophic event, causing severe harm or death.
No, an atom is a basic unit of matter, consisting of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Cancer, on the other hand, is a disease characterized by the uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells in the body. The two are entirely different concepts.
The human body is primarily made up of oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus. Additionally, smaller amounts of other elements such as potassium, sulfur, sodium, and magnesium are also present.
The tiny very dense body located in the atom's center is called the atomic nucleus. It contains protons and neutrons, which make up the majority of the atom's mass. Electrons orbit around the nucleus in the electron cloud.

A human has approximately 7 x 10^27 protons, 7 x 10^27 neutrons, and 7 x 10^27 electrons in their body.
It doesn't. A positively charged body is deficient in electrons. In an uncharged object there are equal numbers of positively charged protons and negatively charged electrons. Removing electrons will leave more protons than electrons, so the object will be positively charged. Such an object is said to have a deficiency or electrons rather than a surplus of electrons because it is generally easier to remove electrons than it is to add protons. Electrons occupy the outer shells of an atom and have a much lower mass than protons. The protons, by contrast, are bound together in the dense nucleus.
Not necessarily. An ion is an atom or molecule that has gained or lost electrons, leading to an unequal number of protons and electrons. For example, a cation has more protons than electrons, while an anion has more electrons than protons.
Potassium is a mineral that plays a key role in many functions of the body, including fluid balance, muscle contractions, and nerve signaling. It is an electrolyte that helps maintain proper muscle function and blood pressure levels. It is commonly found in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.
inside the nucleus
As we learned in intro physics, everything is made up of atoms, and atoms are made up of protons, neutrons and electrons. Protons have a positive charge, neutrons have a neutral charge, and electrons have a negative charge. When these charges are out of balance, an atom becomes either positively or negatively charged. The switch between one type of charge and the other allows electrons to flow from one atom to another. This flow of electrons, or a negative charge, is what we call electricity. Since our bodies are huge masses of atoms, we can generate electricity.

A charged body has an imbalance of positive or negative electrons, while an uncharged body has an equal number of positive and negative charges. Charged bodies can exert electrical forces on other charged bodies, while uncharged bodies do not exhibit electrical effects.
The human body is primarily made up of oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus. Additionally, smaller amounts of other elements such as potassium, sulfur, sodium, and magnesium are also present.
No, the number of protons and neutrons in an atom's nucleus is typically equal, as this gives the element its balanced charge. However, the number of electrons orbiting the nucleus can differ from the number of protons, balancing the charge in the atom as a whole.
