-Dominant- [34]1 year ago
5 0

The amount of the 30 gram-sample that will remain after 270 years is 6.61 grams

<h3>How to determine the number of half-lives </h3>

We'll begin by obtaining the number of half lives that has elapsed. This can be obtained as follow:

  • Half-life (t½) = 96 years
  • Time (t) = 270 years
  • Number of half-lives (n) =?

n = t / t½

n = 270 / 99

n = 2.8125

<h3>How to determine the amount remaining </h3>
  • Original amount (N₀) = 30 grams
  • Number of half-lives (n) = 2.8125
  • Amount remaining (N) =?

The amount remaing can be obtained as follow:

N = N₀ / 2^n

N = 30 / 2^2.8125

N = 6.61 grams

Answer:

<h3>The Difference between Afferent and Efferent Neurons :- </h3>

  • Neurons that receive information from our sensory organs (e.g. eye, skin) and transmit this input to the central nervous system are called afferent neurons.

  • Neurons that send impulses from the central nervous system to your limbs and organs are called efferent neurons.

Mendel bred an unknown plant displaying a dominant phenotype with an individual showing the recessive phenotype; then, he analyz
kodGreya [7K]

What Mendel did according to the illustration would be called test-crossing.

<h3>Test-crossing</h3>

In genetics, test crossing is a procedure through which the zygosity of an individual can be determined - whether it is homzygous or heterozygous.

Test crossing requires that an organism who displays a dominant trait but whose zygosity is unknown is crossed with another organism of the same species but who displays the recessive version of the same trait.

By so doing and using the knowledge of probability, the resulting offspring from the cross will be used to determine the zygosity level of the parent.
