The half-life of a radioactive isotope is the amount of time it takes for a quantity of that isotope to decay to one half of its

Sedaia [141]

Radio active decay reactions follow first order rate kinetics.

a) The half life and decay constant for radio active decay reactions are related by the equation:

$t_{\frac{1}{2}} =$ $\frac{ln 2}{k}$

$t_{\frac{1}{2}} = \frac{0.693}{k}$

Where k is the decay constant

b) Finding out the decay constant for the decay of C-14 isotope:

$Decay constant (k) = \frac{0.693}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}$

$k = \frac{0.693}{5230 years}$

$k = 1.325 * 10^{-4} yr^{-1}$

c) Finding the age of the sample :

35 % of the radiocarbon is present currently.

The first order rate equation is,

$[A] = [A_{0}]e^{-kt}$

$\frac{[A]}{[A_{0}]} = e^{-kt}$

$\frac{35}{100} = e^{-(1.325 *10^{-4})t}$

$ln(0.35) = -(1.325 *10^{-4})(t)$

t = 7923 years

Therefore, age of the sample is 7923 years.

Do plasmids have an importance beyond the practice of genetic engineering?

kozerog [31]

Answer: Yes

Explanation: Plasmids offer a number of unique characteristics that make genetic engineering much more efficient. Plasmids are a type of non-chromosomal DNA. Integrating DNA into a bacterial or other chromosome is far more complex than simply putting DNA into a cell; plasmids make it easier to transport DNA into a cell by eliminating this step.
