Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Atoms of the same element consist of the same atomic number that is number of protons or electrons and different mass number that is number of neutrons. This variation or change in the number of neutrons in an atom gives rise to different isotopes of an element. An element with different isotopes occurs in nature
