-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:

  Variations Within Ecosystems

Ecosystem diversity can be described as a term which is used o describe the changes within an ecosystem and the impact these changes have on the environment and humans.

Variations within an ecosystem can cause genetic drifts. Variations will cause those organisms to survive which are better adapted to survive to the changes which occur in an ecosystem. And the organisms which are not better suited become extinct over a period of time. Hence, this will lead to a wide rise in biodiversity.

The stages of meiosis are classified into two phases. explain why there is in need of two phases
choli [55]
The two phases meiosis is divided into is Meiosis I and Meiosis II. Because Meiosis is not asexual reproduction is uses sexual reproduction by combining the chromosomes of the mother and father. Since each parent give 23 chromosomes to make the whole 46 a human needs, when the chromosomes come together they create tetrads. these are pairs of replicated chromosomes. There are 2 phases because the first phase separates the tetrads leaving the two sister chromatids. During Meiosis II, the sister chromatids are separated like in Mitosis. Overall, the reason that there are two phases is because the maternal and paternal gametes give replicated chromosomes to the zygote.

Based on the graph above, how well will the enzyme perform as a catalyst when placed in a pH 7 solution, such as water?
mrs_skeptik [129]
The correct answer is "<span>It will perform less than optimally unless the pH was increased."

This is because the curve on the graph shows pH versus reaction rate. If we follow the x-axis (the bottom one) to a pH of 7, it is at an extremely low reaction rate compared to other points of the graph. If we continue along, we see that the reaction rate increases as the pH increases. Therefore, the enzyme will perform less than optimally unless the pH is increased.

Hope this helps, and hope I'm the brainiest! :)</span>
