Radioimmunoassay (RIA) is a test that combines radioactive chemicals and antibodies to detect minute quantities of substances in a patient's blood.

In 1959, biophysicist Rosalyn Yalow and physician Solomon A. Berson developed a sensitive method for measuring very small amounts of a substance in the blood called radioimmunoassay (RIA).

Radioimmunoassay (RIA) is a technique that make use of radioisotopes, usually iodine-125, as a tag or label for the detection of antigen. This technique determines the concentration of an antigen based on the competitive binding between radiolabeled and unlabeled antigen for its specific high affinity antibody.

It is very sensitive that it can measure concentrations up to 0.001 μg/ml.

The moon has a higher maximum surface temperature compared to Earth (253 degrees of moon to 136 degrees of Earth), but this also depends on night (which is colder) or day (which is hotter).

The moon has such extreme temperatures because it has no atmosphere that can "reflect" some of the heat from the sun, whereas the earth does.

Oil is most likely to form becauseChoose one:
Luden [163]

B. tiny algae and plankton decomposed under conditions of heat, pressure, and low oxygen.

Explanation:

Oil is most likely to form where tiny algae and plankton decomposed under conditions of heat, pressure and low oxygen.

  Coal will form when plant materials like twigs, leaves and tree trunks decomposed under conditions of heat, pressure and low oxygen.

  • To form oil, algae and plankton will be gathered with sediments in a basin.
  • Rapid burial causes the algae and plankton to be cut off from aerobic environment that would lead to the decay of these organisms.
  • They are buried alive and as the basin subsides, temperature and pressure acts to produce kerogen.
  • Further cracking produces oil and gas.

dedylja [7]
1 ) The first terrarium was developed by botanist Nathaniel Bagshaw Ward in 1842. He was interested in studying insect behaviour. Once he accidentally left one of his bug jars open. A fern spore in the jar sprouted, grew and germinated into a new plant. This is how the first terrarium had been created.

2 ) <span />Because of the different conditions within, terrariums there are two, which can be classified as closed and open. Closed terrariums have a lid to enclose the plants entirely within the glass container. Open terrariums do not require a lid.​

Sorry working on this right now as well, and I don't have the others yet :(
