Potassium is most likely to be found with 6.25% of its original amount in 6 billion years because the half life of Potassium-40 is 1-1.5 billion years in graph. Thus the correct option is C.

If it half in 1 to1.5 billion years = 50% gain

1-1.5 billion years = 25%. gain

If we do that 2 more times we will get 12.5% and then 6.25% gain.

<h3>What is half life?</h3>

Half life is defined as the time required for half of the atoms of a radioactive substance to become disintegrated.

Our estimate is about 1-1.5 billion years so repeating that about 4 times we get around 4-6 billion years for it to gain 6.25%.  From this it can be concluded that Potassium-40 as since it comes the closest to remaining at 6.25% its original amount after approximately 6 billion years.

Zebra mussel populations are growing explosively in the river systems of the central united states. the best explanation for thi
Likurg_2 [28]
The best explanation for this unchecked population growth is that the predators are too few to slow down population growth of mussels. The environment limits population growth by changing birth and death rates. The factors affecting population size and growth include biotic factors such as food, disease, competitors, and predators and abiotic factors such as rainfall, floods, and temperature. Predators affect individual growth rates of surviving prey by acting to increase growth rate by thinning the density of prey populations, which releases survivors from competition.<span />
