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.

Jlenok [28]

In coniferous forests, the terrestrial biome receives precipitation of up to 300 to 900 millimeters (mm) each year.

Coniferous forests mainly consist of conifers and grow trees that produce thick needles and cones instead of growing flowers and leaves.

These are evergreen plants and stay green, healthy, and sustainable all year long.

In spite of flowers, these trees bear needles annually.

Moreover, conifers are very adaptive trees that can grow in very cold and dry climate zones.

It is due to their adaptability that they can survive all year long without losing a life.

Siberian fir, Dahurian, and Siberian larches are examples of confer forests.
