Answer:

Thalamus

Explanation:

Thalamus is a mass of gray matter located just above the brain stem, between the cerebral cortex and the midbrain. It plays a role in pain sensation, attention and alertness. It consists of four parts: the hypothalamus, the epythalamus, the ventral thalamus and the dorsal thalamus.

It (Thalamus) serves as the major relay station for most sensory impulses that reach the primary sensory areas of the cerebral cortex from the spinal cord and brain stem.

Phosphorus-32, a radioactive isotope of phosphorus-31 (atomic number 15), undergoes a form of radioactive decay whereby a neutro
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

The product of the decay its Sulfur-32

Explanation:

Phosphorus-32 ( lets write it _{15}^{32}P, where the number above its the atomic mass and the number below the atomic number) decays turning a neutron into a proton and emitting radiation on the form of a electron. This is the beta minus decay, and, actually, an electronic antineutrino its also produced. We can write this decay for an X isotope with a Y isotope produced as:

_{Z}^{A}X \to _{Z+1}^{A}Y + e^- + \bar{\nu_e}

where e^- its the electron, and \bar{\nu_e} the electronic antineutrino . We can see that the atomic number increases by one (cause a proton it produced and retained into the nucleus), and the atomic mass is approximately the same (there is a small difference between the neutron and proton mass, but its very small).

So, Phosphorus-32 (atomic number 15) will turn to an element with atomic number 16, and atomic mass 32, as:

_{15}^{32}P \to _{15+1}^{32}Y + e^- + \bar{\nu_e}.

_{15}^{32}P \to _{16}^{32}Y + e^- + \bar{\nu_e}.

The Y isotope must have an atomic number of 16 and an atomic mass of 32. The element with atomic number 16 its Sulfur (S), so, our decay its

_{15}^{32}P \to _{16}^{32}S + e^- + \bar{\nu_e}.

and the product of such decay its Sulfur-32

What do we mean when we say that 50 million tons of coal could replace the use of 0.6 MBPD (million barrels per day) of oil used
ololo11 [35]
<span>This statement simply implies that the 50 million tons of coal will produce the same energy output in one year as the 0.6 million barrels per day of oil. Assuming coal is more plentiful than oil, this is significant as 50 million tons is much smaller than 219 million barrels of oil.</span>
