Answer: Option (D) is correct.

Example:

An atom consists of electrons, protons and neutrons. It is know that when an atom loses electrons, the charge on the element changes.

when an atom loses a proton, a different atom is obtained and on losing a neutron an isotope will be formed.

Whereas tachyons are known as the hypothetical particles and these particles travel even faster than light.

Thus, an atom does not consists of tachyons hence they cannot be removed from the atom.
