The answer is: Barter

Barter economy refers to an economic system which does not possess a universal medium of exchange (i.e : Currency).

In barter economy, everytime people want to obtain a product that they need, those people need to trade the needed product with other products that they already owned. (for example, if person A who is a chicken farmer want to obtain milk from person B, person A can trade the eggs that he produce for the milk that person B produce)

Mobutu Sese Seko improved Zaire's mining and industries but corruption prevented repayment of international loans. In his final years of rule, Zaire was largely reduced to a BARTER economy. Barter is an informal trade or exchange of goods and services.

More than 75 percent

Explanation:

Let us carefully analyze this problem:

The half life of the rubidium isotope = 50 billion years

The half-life of a radioactive isotope is the time it takes for it to decay to half of its original amount.

Every 50years, we know that a rubidium isotope would split into half.

Initially when the isotope was formed, we would only have the parent atoms there. There wont be any daughter;

ratio of parent to daughter = 100 : 0

When the isotope decays to half; we would have equal number of parent and daughter:

ratio of parent to daughter at half life = 50 : 50

The age of the earth is about 4.6billion years;

this is;

$\frac{4.6}{50}$ x 100 = 9.2% of the half-life of the rubidium isotope.

At this time, we should know that only 9.2 percent of the daughter would have been formed.

The remaining parent would be 100 - 9.2 = 90.8% would still be left undecayed.

The ratio of parent to daughter = 90.8 : 9.2

This is more than 75% of the parent

How does the shape of our present day continents support the idea of continental drift?

almond37 [142]

Fossil records from separate continents, particularly on the outskirts of continents show the same species. As well mineral specimens along the supposed break lines of the continents are nearly identical. Some identical species exist on certain continents, like an earthworm common to both Africa and South America suggesting the species could not have spontaneously arisen on both continents without some variations.

6. One sample has a chemical composition with a ratio of two iron atoms to three oxygen atoms. Another sample has a chemical com

Svetlanka [38]

Answer: They are not.

Explanation:

When it comes to molecular bonding, a single additional atom can change the characteristics of the compound. This is why Carbon Dioxide is different from Carbon Monoxide even though they both contain only Carbon and Oxygen atoms albeit in different quantities.

In this scenario the compounds described are Hematite which has two iron atoms to three oxygen atoms and Magnetite which has three iron atoms to four oxygen atoms. The presence of the different number of the same atoms made these compounds different.
