Absolute Dating. The nuclear decay of radioactive isotopes is a process that behaves in a clock-like fashion and is thus a useful took for determining the absolute age of rocks. Radioactive decay is the process by which a "parent" isotope changes into a "Daughter" isotope.
Answer:
Within all lifeforms on Earth, from the tiniest bacterium to the giant sperm whale, there are four major classes of organic macromolecules that are always found and are essential to life. These are the carbohydrates, lipids (or fats), proteins, and nucleic acids. All of the major macromolecule classes are similar, in that, they are large polymers that are assembled from small repeating monomer subunits. In Chapter 6, you were introduced to the polymers of life and their building block structures, as shown below in Figure 11.1. Recall that the monomer units for building the nucleic acids, DNA and RNA, are the nucleotide bases, whereas the monomers for proteins are amino acids, for carbohydrates are sugar residues, and for lipids are fatty acids or acetyl groups.
Explanation:
The only answer that is not an example of a cell specialization is :
<span>Bacteria cells are small in size in order to easily diffuse in and out of the cytoplasm.
All of the other examples, the muscle, nerve and the rod and cone cells have specific cell structures, shapes, and proteins that enable them to execute their specific roles in the organism. </span>
