For this problem, we use the formula for radioactive decay which is expressed as follows:

An = Aoe^-kt

where An is the amount left after time t, Ao is the initial amount and k is a constant.  

We calculate as follows:

at hal-life equal to 5700,

An = Aoe^-kt

0.5 = e^-k(5700)

k = 1.22x10^-4

An = A

In a scientific experiment how many independent variables should be tested at the same time? A. none B. one C. two D. three or m
choli [55]
B. One

because an independent variable is something you change. So in a scientific experiment you only change one thing. If you happen to change more than one thing then the test becomes unfair therefore you should repeat and make sure that only one thing is changed this time.

How can DNA be useful in phylogeny? Question 14 options: A) DNA from every organism in a clade is sequenced to identify genetic
Delvig [45]

Answer:

The correct answer is - option B. DNA sequences from different species can be compared, giving us more information about their evolutionary relationships.

Explanation:

The study of the evolution of a species in a longer period of time and its evolutionary relation with other species is phylogeny. DNA is the basis of the molecular phylogeny of a species to find out the evolution of species.

Genetic mutations, a sequence of nucleotides, and other information of DNA helps in the establishment of divergence from common ancestry. By comparing the information it gives an idea about the evolutionary ancestry of two or more species.
