<span>The correct option is D. An homologous structure is a type of structure that is found in different animals but have similar form of arrangement. Homologous structures indicate decent from a common ancestor or same evolutionary origin. Homologous structures in two animals may not be alike in appearance or function but genetically, they came from the same structure of the last common ancestor.</span><span />

suppose you found a bone of a mastodon which had 6.25%c14and93.75%n14 how long ago did this animal die​
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

t= 3886.18 years old

Explanation:

Whenever an animal dies de C14 and N14 begin to disintegrate in such a way that the proportion between C14 and C12 decreases, with a semi-disintegration period of 5.730 years, T. To get to know how long it takes an element to disintegrate, we must use this semi-disintegration period, which is the time it takes until the amount of the element is reduced to its half.  

We can find the age of the fossil, t, by using the next formula:

t = - (T x ln (C14))/ ln (2)

t = - (5730 x ln (0.625)/0.693

t= - (-2693.12)/0.693

t= 3886.18
