Atoms of carbon-14 are radioactive. They decay into atoms of the element nitrogen. Suppose that a sample of rock is taken from a fossil. The sample has 500 atoms of carbon-14 and 1500 atoms of nitrogen. If carbon-14 has a half-life of 5700 years, how old is the fossil? 5700 years old 11,400 years old 17,100 years old 2850 years old

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

11,400 years old

Explanation:

The total  number of atoms present at the beginning = number of C-14 + number of N-14 atoms.

Hence;

1500 + 500 = 2000 atoms = No

At time t, N = 500 atoms of C-14 remains

Since the half life of C-14 (t1/2) = 5700 years

N/No = (1/2)^t/t1/2

500/2000 =  (1/2)^t/5700

1/4 = (1/2)^t/5700

(1/2)^2 =(1/2)^t/5700

2 = t/5700

t = 2 * 5700

t = 11,400 years old

Consider the following population:

Blood Type A B AB O
Number of individuals 533 84 67 316

What is the frequency of the IB allele in this population?

Answers

Answer:

0.079

Explanation:

Using Hardy Weinberg equilibrium for  blood group;

p² + 2pq + q² + 2pr + r² + 2qr = 1

where;

p = allele frequency for A

q =  allele frequency for B

r =  allele frequency for O

N(p² + 2pr) = the number of allele for type A people

N(q² + 2qr) = the number of allele for type B people

N(2pq) = the number of allele for AB people

N(r²) = the number of allele for O people

N(r²) = 316

r² = 316/1000

r² = 0.316

r = [tex]\sqrt{0.316[/tex]

r =  0.56

To find the frequency of the [tex]I^B[/tex] allele;

N(q² + 2qr) = 84

q² + 2qr = 84/1000

q² + 2qr = 0.084

where;

r = 0.56

q² + 2q(0.56) = 0.084

q² + 1.12q = 0.084

q² + 1.12q - 0.084 = 0

Using the quadratic formula:

[tex]=\dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

where;

a = 1, b = 1.12, c = -0.084

[tex]=\dfrac{-(1.12) \pm \sqrt{(1.12)^2-4(1)(-0.084)}}{2\times 1}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{-(1.12) \pm \sqrt{1.2544-(-0.336)}}{2}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{-(1.12) \pm \sqrt{1.5904}}{2}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{-(1.12) \pm 1.261}{2}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{-(1.12) + 1.261}{2} \ \ OR \ \ \dfrac{-(1.12) - 1.261}{2}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{0.141}{2} \ \ OR \ \ \dfrac{-2.381}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\simeq 0.079 \ \ OR \ \ -1.1905[/tex]

Since our value can be negative; then the frequency of the  [tex]I^B[/tex] allele in this population is 0.079.

Which of the following distinguishes why deer populations have increased?
The amount of predator animals has decreased.
Fewer hunters are culling the population of deer.
The amount of other grazing animals has decreased.
Fewer cattle are allowed to graze on open grasslands.

Answers

Answer:

The most correct option is the first option

Explanation:

A deer is an herbivorous animal that is usually preyed upon by many wild carnivorous animals like lions, tigers and leopards. Hence, when the population of these wild predatory carnivorous animals reduce, the population of the deer would increase because fewer of them would them would be killed by predators despite them (the deers) reproducing.

Note that a predator is an animal that feeds upon another animal (referred to as prey) of lower "strength".

(4 points total) (a) The rate of oxygen consumption will decrease. (b) The cell will switch from glucose oxidation to fatty acid oxidation. (c) ATP synthase will still be able to create ATP. (d) Lactic acid fermentation will increase sharply.

Answers

Answer:

(a) The rate of oxygen consumption will decrease.

Explanation:

The rate of oxygen consumption will decrease due to the Potassium cyanide which inhibits both utilization of oxygen by the cell as well as ATP production. Cytochrome performs an important function in the mitochondria of the cell which is the production of ATP. Cyanide binds to the cytochrome and inhibits the ATP production that is performed by mitochondria of the cell. So Potassium cyanide decreases the rate of oxygen consumption in mitochondria.

There is a considerable amount of chemical energy stored in a tall tree. For instance, the wood could be burned to make a great deal of heat.

From where does the chemical energy come?

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is - the sun.

Explanation:

When a plant is in initial stages there isgradual increase in  the mass of the plant which become later as a tall tree by the process of the phostosynthesis as it increase the storage of glucose or sugar in the tree. The mass of the tree by glucose storage is due to the carbon molecules of CO2 moleules.

Photosynthesis is the process that involves the trapping of the light come from the sun which is then converted in the cheical energy in the form of the glucose or the sugars.

The chemical energy present in the tall trees comes from the Sun.  

• Through the process of photosynthesis, the tall trees convert energy from the Sun, that is, light energy into the chemical energy.  

• The majority of this energy is stored in the trees in the form of compounds known as carbohydrates.  

• When animals consume trees and its components, they consume and absorb some of this energy, that is, stored as chemical energy into the compounds protein and fats.  

Thus, the green plants and trees are the source of energy, that is, used for various purposes. Through the process of photosynthesis, the light energy coming from the Sun gets converted into the chemical energy that gets stored as carbohydrates.

Alleles can be described as 1. dominant 11. recessive III. codominant IV. partially dominant V. incompletely dominant O A. I, II, III, and V only OB. I and II only OC. I, II, and Ill only OD II, III, and V only​

Answers

Answer:

A. I, II, III, and V only

Explanation:

In genetics, an allele refers to the specific form of a gene, which encodes traits. These alleles are usually in pairs in a diploid organism i.e. an organism with two sets of chromosomes. According to Gregor Mendel,

- An allele can either be DOMINANT when the allele masks the phenotypic expression of its allelic pair while the allele that is masked is said to be RECESSIVE.

- Two alleles can also be CO-DOMINANT when the two alleles are neither dominant or recessive over one another but are simultaneously expressed in that particular gene.

- Alleles can also be INCOMPLETELY DOMINANT when one allele is not completely dominant over the other, hence, forms a third intermediate phenotype when in combination with the second allele i.e. in an heterozygous state.

Based on this, an allele can be dominant (I), recessive (II), codominant (III), and incompletely dominant (V).

__________ is a protein attached to the thylakoid membrane that helps synthesize ATP each time a H+ ion exits the thylakoid.

c)NADPH
d)ADP​

Answers

I think the answer will be NADPH

ATP synthase is a protein attached to the thylakoid membrane that helps synthesize ATP each time an H+ ion exits the thylakoid. Therefore, option A is correct.

What is ATP synthase?

The enzyme that produces ATP molecules is called ATP synthase. ATP synthases create ATP from its precursor, ADP. The cristae and inner membrane of mitochondria, the thylakoid membrane of chloroplasts, and the plasma membrane of bacteria all contain these enzymes.

It is a multi-component complex that crosses the mitochondrial inner membrane, the cell's power plants.

In order to manufacture ATP more effectively, the curvature of the mitochondrial inner membrane must be created by the interaction of the enzyme complex with fatty molecules. Therefore, option A is correct.

C
The carrying capacity of the ecosystem will decrease because there will be less food available for many organisms.
D
The carrying capacity of the ecosystem will decrease because there will be fewer organisms competing for resources.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

there will be way less vegetation to attract pet and many organisms will die because of the lack of resources due to the drought

If the desert experiences a prolonged drought where many of the plants die, the carrying capacity of the ecosystem will decrease because there will be less food available for many organisms.

What is ecosystem?"An ecosystem consists of all the organisms and the physical environment with which they interact."What do you man by carrying capacity?"The carrying capacity is the maximum population size of a biological species that can be sustained by that specific environment, given the food, habitat, water, and other resources available."

Due to draught, resources decreases (resources becomes limited) and many organisms would die because of starvation. This would also effect in the food chain of other organisms. The organism would now compete for the lesser amount of resource.

Hence, the correct option is C. The carrying capacity of the ecosystem will decrease because there will be less food available for many organisms.

b. All have the same structure
c. are often quite different from each other
d. are the same size in every part of the organism

Answers

Answer:

c. are often quite different from each other

Explanation:

Multicellular organisms - composed of several different cells: Cells in these organisms differ in relation to the function to be performed.

The cells in these organisms are growing, developing, and reproducing.

The cells differ in shape, size, and role they have in the organism.

In the group of multicellular organisms are animals (Animalia), plants (Plantae), and fungi (Fungi).

Cells in many-celled organisms are often quite different from each other. Therefore option C is correct.

In many-celled organisms, such as animals and plants, cells can be specialized for specific functions, leading to their differentiation and diversification.

Different types of cells have distinct structures and perform specific tasks within the organism.

For example, nerve cells (neurons) are specialized for transmitting electrical signals, muscle cells for contraction, and blood cells for carrying oxygen and nutrients.

This specialization allows for efficient division of labor, where each cell type contributes to the overall functioning of the organism.

The diversity of cell types and their functions is a fundamental aspect of the complex organization and functioning of multicellular organisms, contributing to their overall biological complexity and adaptability.

Therefore option C are often quite different from each other is correct.

During DNA replication, the DNA polymerase enzyme produces a complemetary strand from each of the original strands.

What is DNA replication?

It is the process by which DNA produces a copy of itself at the time of cell division. In the process of replication, the initial step is the unzipping of the double helix structure of the DNA. This is done with the help of enzyme helicase. The unzipping creates a Y shape composition called replication fork.

Towards the replication fork, one of the strands is oriented in the 3' to 5' direction, known as the leading strand. The other strand in the 5' to 3' direction is the lagging strand, which is away from the replication fork.

The primer combines with the leading strand, and marks the intiation point of the synthesis of DNA. After this, DNA polymerase combines with the leading strand and add complementary nucleotide bases in the 5' to 3' direction.

In the lagging strand, numerous primers come and bind, later the chunks of DNA called Okazaki fragments are supplemented to the lagging strand in the 5' to 3' direction, by the enzyme DNA polymerase. This kind of replication is termed discontinuous as the Okazaki fragments are joined up later.

Thus, the correct statement is the second one, that is,  the DNA polymerase enzyme produces a complemetary strand from each of the original strands.
