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.

Describe the role of the Circulatory/Cardiovascular system in helping the body rid of carbon dioxide
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

The circulatory system comprises of blood vessels which help in removing carbon dioxide from the body. The carbon dioxide produced by the cells is collected by the capillaries  where the carbon dioxide gets dissolved in the blood. This blood is carried to the heart via the veins. The heart pumps the deoxygenated blood to the lungs where gaseous exchange occurs between the blood capillaries and the alveoli of the lungs. When we exhale, the carbon dioxide is breathed out.
