Answer:
grams
Explanation:
Given -
Half life of the silicon-32
years
Half life means the time period required by a radioactive element to reduce its mass by half.
Radioactive decay formula is

Where
A represents the amount of radioactive element after time t years
represents the initial amount of radioactive element
time of decay
half-life of the substance
Substituting the given values in above equation, we get -

grams

Answer:
d. Actively transported into the phloem
Explanation: Source is the place where sugar are been produced and are active transported to actively growing part of plants that requires it. The actively growing plants part that requires sugar are called sink.
Photosynthate the end products of photosynthesis is what is been loaded into the phloem through active transport and then moved to sink i.e plant part that requires the sugar through a process called translocation. The sink in plant includes the fruits, leaves for some vegetables,flowers for ornamental crop,too or tuber, rhizomes.
When the phloem cell is damage there is reduction in transport of photosynthate or accumulation in a particular part of plant.
Actively growing parts of plant have a high demand for sugar or sucrose than the old and weak parts of plants.
<h2>Scurvy </h2>
Explanation:
(a) Collagen is the major structural component of cartilage,bones and tendons
- The basic unit of collagen is tropocollagen and each tropocollagen consists of three coiled left handed polypeptide chains called α chains
- Generally each α chain consists of a repeating tripeptide sequence called: G-X-Y
- Here G represents glycine; X represents proline and Y represents hydroxyproline
- Rigidity of collagen molecule is due to presence of proline and hydroxyproline
- Hydroxylation of proline is catalysed by prolyl hydroxylase enzyme which use ascorbate,α ketoglutarate and oxygen
- α ketoglutarate is oxidatively decarboxylated to form carbon dioxide and succinate
- Sequence of events leading from a dietary vitamin C deficiency to symptoms such as bruising and breakdown of supporting tissues includes: tissue levels of ascorbic acid is low; enzyme prolyl hydroxylase is inactive; proline is not hydroxylated; the triple helix is inadequately stabilized; collagen breaks down; defects in tissues that depend on collagen
; tissues that depend on collagen are subject to breakdown and bruising
(b) Sailors are no longer susceptible to scurvy because fresh fruits which are the source of vitamin C source are available now
British sailors called "limeys" to this day,this term reflects the British navy's use of limes
Answer:
a) the pyrimidine ring is assembled before being bonded to the ribose phosphate, whereas the purine ring is bonded to the ribose phosphate as it is formed
Explanation:
There are two ways for the synthesis of purines and pyrimidines:
- de novo synthesis-from basic simple units
- "recycling" synthesis-reuse of metabolites
Purines are synthesized directly on ribose sugar, in segments.
Pyrimidines are attached to the ribose after the synthesis of the base.
