Answer:

D Protons/negative; neutrons/neutral; electrons/negative

Step-by-step explanation:

There are three fundamental subatomic particles found in atom which are the protons, neutrons and electrons.

  • Protons are the positively charged particles
  • Neutrons are neutral and do not carry any charges
  • Electrons are negatively charged.

In the tiny central nucleus, both protons and neutrons can be found

The electrons occupy the bulk volume of the atom.
