Answer : The protons and neutrons subatomic particles will be located at Z.

Explanation :

In the model of an atom, there are three subatomic particles. Protons, neutrons and electrons are the subatomic particles.

The protons and the neutrons subatomic particles are located inside the nucleus and the electrons subatomic particle are located around or outside the nucleus.

The protons are positively charged, electrons are negatively charged and neutrons are neutral that means it has no charge.

In the given dartboard, Z is the nucleus in which the protons and neutrons subatomic particles are present and x, w & y are the electrons because they are located around the nucleus.

Hence, the protons and neutrons subatomic particles will be located at Z.
