Answer:

See details below

Explanation:

STEP 1:

We know already that the capacity to absorb oxygen of the body is not limited by the amount of oxygen available, but by the ability of hemoglobin to bind and transport O2 so Itamin O is useless. There is no an efficient way of extracting oxygen when we talk to GI tract but we know that is transport to our lungs without problems.

STEP 2:

It is required a dedicated O2 binding protein (hemoglobin) indicates that dissolved oxygen by itslef cannot attain the high concentration required. The use of some Vitamin O would make a difference in the amount of oxygen already present in the blood .

Answer:

The P waves undergoes compression and dilation during motion in its direction of propagation. This waves reaches the station first because the P waves travels at a speed, that is much faster in comparison to the S waves. The S waves are the secondary waves and are commonly known as the shear waves.

The P waves have the ability to travel in both solid as well as in liquid, whereas the S waves can propagate only in solid region because they are absorbed at the core-mantle boundary.

Thus, the P waves will arrive the station first and the difference between the arrival of P and S waves are plotted in the graph that helps in depicting the epicenter and the amount of energy released during an earthquake.

Which statement explains why carbon-14 dating Cannot be used to date ancient rocks
cestrela7 [59]

The answer is the radioactive isotope reacts in the same way as stable isotopes in the chemical reactions in the body.


C-14 and C-12 are carbon isotopes used to measure the approximate age of organic remains. C-12 is stable, and it does not break down into other elements over time. C-14 is not stable. It breaks down into N-14. But, in the body, the radioactive isotope reacts in the same way as stable isotopes in the chemical reactions.
