How does the chemical reactivity of an unstable isotope compare with that of a stable isotope?

Biology

Answer:

The difference between a stable isotope and an unstable isotope

A "stable isotope" is any of two or more forms of an element whos nuclei contains the same number of protons and electrons, but a different number of neutrons. Stable isotopes remain unchanged indefinitely, but "unstable" (radioactive) isotopes undergo spontaneous disintegration.

What’s Newton’s first law
Klio2033 [76]
Newton’s first law had to do with inertia, which is a property that explains that something in motion will continue in motion unless stopped by a force of some sort.

“An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.”

What type of cytokine stimulates blood cell production?.
Rashid [163]

IL-2 is one of many cytokines that govern the immune response. It acts as a mitogen for T cells, potentially enhancing their proliferation and activity, improving antigen generation, and raising the synthesis and release of other cytokines.

What happens during the initiation step of DNA transcription? A ribosome attaches to the initiation codon of a completed mRNA st
Amanda [17]

Answer:

<u>A portion of the DNA unwinds and RNA polymerase attaches to the DNA within the transcription bubble.</u>

Explanation:

Transcription is the process in which DNA template is used to synthesize  mRNA.

There are three steps of transcription:

  • <u>Initiation</u>

It is the process in  which a portion of DNA unwinds and RNA polymerase binds to the promotor region on the DNA.

  • <u>Elongation</u>

It is the process in which RNA polymerase moves along the DNA template and synthesizes mRNA. During this process, unwinding of double stranded DNA takes place.

  • <u>Termination</u>

As the RNA polymerase moves along the DNA template, it finally reaches a termination signal and then stops synthesizing. It is followed by the detachment of the newly formed mRNA and RNA polymerase from the DNA.

<u>QUESTION:</u>

  • <u> A ribosome attaches to the initiation codon of a completed mRNA strand.</u>

This is the incorrect answer choice as this process does not happen in the process of transcription. This event happens<u> in the process of translation in which mRNA is used to synthesize proteins or amino acids. mRNA attaches to ribosome during this process.</u>

  • <u>RNA polymerase moves along the template strand of the DNA creating an mRNA strand.</u>

This is the incorrect answer choice as this event takes place in the process of elongation.

  • <u>A portion of the DNA unwinds and RNA polymerase attaches to the DNA within the transcription bubble.</u>

This is the<u> correct answer choice as this event takes place in the process of initiation of transcription</u>

  • <u>The mRNA detaches from the RNA polymerase as the RNA polymerase leaves the DNA strand.</u>

This is the incorrect answer choice. This event takes place in the event of termination of transcription.

Use the complementary rule: If we had a DNA strand of 20 nucleotides, and 6 of them
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

6 thymine, 4 guanine. 4 cytosine

Explanation:

Adenine pairs with thymine, so you need 6 of each

Cytosine matches with guanine, but the total of nucleotides is 20, so

6(adenine)+6(thymine)=12

20-12=8

8= 4(guanine)+4(cytosine)
