Answer:

D. Krypton-73

Step-by-step explanation:

An isotope of an element has the same atomic number and the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons and a different atomic weight. Krypton is the 36th element on the periodic table. It has 36 protons and 48 neutrons. Krypton-73 is one of 33 known isotopes of Krypton and is the only one that actually exists from the list of choices.

Hope that helps.
