Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The unit used to measure atomic mass is the atomic mass unit (amu). A single amu is equivalent to 1/12 the mass of an atom from the carbon-12 isotopIsotopes with different numbers of protons and neutrons will have an actual mass slightly different from the atomic mass calculated in atomic mass units.
