Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

The light microscope uses visible light to produce images of objects on its slide while the electron microscope uses beams of electrons to project the image of specimens. Color is a property of photons of light, hence, the light microscope is able to produce images of specimens in their natural colors

The areas of the specimen on an electron microscope in which the beams of electron pass through usually appear white while other areas appear black. Hence, the electron microscopes can only produce grayscale images of specimens unless a false color is added to make the images visually appealing.

Answer:

. When images are magnified, they become dimmer because there is less light ... This produces an image of the specimen in bright colors against a dark background.

The bones from an animal found at an archaeological dig have a C614 activity of 0.10 Bq per gram of carbon. The half-life of C61

erastova [34]

C14 is an isotope used in radiocarbon dating techniques to date organic matter remains. The age of these bones is approximately 6890 years.

<h3>What is Carbon 14?</h3>

Carbon 14, also known as radiocarbon, is a radioactive carbon isotope.

Isotopes are the atoms of the same element -carbon- that vary in neutrons and, hence, in their massic number. They are alternative forms of the same element.

The radioactive C14 nucleus contains 6 protons and 8 neutrons and has a half-life of 5730 years.

The term half-life is a reference. It means that an organism that has been dead for 5730 years has half the C14 amount or concentration than the same organism had when it was alive.

Knowing the half-life of an element is useful to determine the age of the dead matter.

C14 is used in radiocarbon dating techniques or methods to estimate the age of fossils. This is a reliable technique used for dating organic samples that are less than 50,000 years old.

Available data:

The half-life of C14 is 5730 years
Bones activity of 0.10 Bq per gram of carbon

To answer this question we can make use of the following equation

Ln (C14T₁/C14 T₀) = - λ T₁

Where,

C14 T₀ ⇒ Amount of carbon in a living body. We know, by bibliography, that living organism activity is 0.23 Bq per gram of carbon. So, C14 T₀ = 0.23 Bq/g

C14T₁ ⇒ Amount of carbon in the dead body. C14T₁ = 0.1 Bq/g

λ ⇒ radioactive decay constant = (Ln2)/T₀,₅

T₀,₅ ⇒ The half-life of carbon 14 = 5730 years

T₀ = Time when the organism was alive

T₁ = Age of bones

Let us first calculate the radioactive decay constant.

λ = (Ln2)/T₀,₅

λ = 0.693/5730

λ = 0.0001209

Now, let us calculate the first term in the equation

Ln (C14T₁/C14 T₀) = Ln (0.1/0.23) = Ln 0.4347 = - 0.833

Finally, let us replace the terms, clear the equation, and calculate the value of T₁.

Ln (C14T₁/C14 T₀) = - λ T₁

- 0.833 = - 0.0001209 x T₁

T₁ = - 0.833 / - 0.0001209

T₁ = 6889.99 ≅ 6890 years

The bones are approximately 6890 years.

Which molecules would dissolve well in oil

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer: A variety of substances will dissolve oil, including gasoline and carbon tetrachloride -- both of which have non-polar molecules. Acetone is a special class of solvent called “dipolar aprotic” that, depending on the circumstances, can act as a weak acid or base; it dissolves oil and mixes with water as well.

Which substance on the plasma membrane helps identify chemical signals from outside the cell?

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

The correct answer is carbohydrate chain.

Explanation:

Plasma membrane contain three types of protein a peripheral protein b transmembrane protein and c GPI anchored protein.

Some membrane protein basically peripheral proteins contain oligosaccharide chain arranged towards the extracellular region of the plasma membrane with respect to the surface of that glycoprotein.

The oligosaccharide chain of glycoprotein play an important role in to identify signals from outside the cell.These signals may include the entry of virus particles inside our body,protein targeting etc.
