Which statement explains why carbon-14 dating Cannot be used to date ancient rocks

Biology
1 answer:
cestrela7 [59]2 years ago
6 0

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.

Suppose you have an X ray of an arm, which is taken because the doctor suspects a bone is broken. You also have a drawing showin
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

An X-ray is done to diagnose the position of bones in the body whether its broken or not or in right place or not.

An X-ray machine is turned on to provide a visual of the bones showing bone condition. When the machine is turned on, X-ray travel through the body tissues, and due to the presence of calcium in bones, they absorb more X-rays, thus bones appear white against the black background of a radiograph.

These white bones on the radiograph will show the position of bones whether it's broken or not.

So, both the visuals that is X-ray and drawing showing visuals (the bones appear white) contribute valuable data to the given situation.

Bacteria are single-celled organisms that must absorb their nutrients by simple diffusion. The dimensions of Thiomargarita namib
inessss [21]

Answer:

They have a vacuole inside, that stored the nitrate needed to oxidize sulfide and obtain energy.

Explanation:

<em>Thiomargarita namibiensis</em> is the largest prokaryotic bacterium yet known, it has a spherical shape and reaches up to a size of 0.75 mm wide, which makes it visible to the human eye. It was discovered on the shores of Namibia and It is known as "Sulfur Pearl of Namibia," due to the sulfur granules they store inside and the brightness they produce. The problem with its large dimensions is the larger the surface of the bacteria, the lower the level of nutrient absorption. therefore this bacterium had to develop other mechanisms of nutrient and energy uptake

The survival mechanism of this bacterium is quite particular, first of all, it is an anaerobic bacterium, so it is found in sulfide-rich sediments. Its main feature is a liquid container inside called vacuole, which occupies 98% of its volume. In this vacuole, the nitrate that the bacteria use to oxidize sulfide is stored and thus obtain energy. <em>T. namibiensis</em> is unable to move, so they have to wait until the sea currents transport nitrate-rich seawater to store it in their vacuoles, so they can survive for up to 3 months without any other external substrate.

Can someone help me these questions are based off wetlands
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

1. another way of identifying the plants is the use of what's called a dichotomous key the dichotomous key gives you choices about a plant's characteristics that leads to that plant's identity for example dichotomous key might ask whether the leaves of your plant are opposite on the stem.

2. Animal tracks, droppings, nests or other “homes,” etc.

3.Wetlands function as natural sponges that trap and slowly release surface water, rain, snowmelt, groundwater and flood waters. Trees, root mats and other wetland vegetation also slow the speed of flood waters and distribute them more slowly over the floodplain
