Biology
1 answer:
Alex17521 [72]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Weakening of digestive smooth muscle with age can cause constipation.

Explanation:

Smooth muscles in the digestive system have the role to move food down the tract via radially symmetrical contractions (peristalsis). With age, the function of smooth muscles reduces, causing the food to move more slowly through the alimentary canal (digestive tract). As a consequence, water gets absorbed from food waste, which can cause constipation.

A fossil was found and determined by radiometric dating to be 11,400 years old. what is the ratio of carbon-14 to carbon-12 in t
LuckyWell [14K]

The answer would be 25%

Carbon 14 is radioactive material with 5700 year of half-time which will change it into carbon-12, a more stable substance. If the age of the fossil is 11,400 years old, then the amount of half-time passed would be: 11,400 years/ (5,700years/ half-time)= 2 half-time.

Since it undergo 2 half-time, the percentage should be: 100% * (1/2)^2= 25%
