The bones from an animal found at an archaeological dig have a C614 activity of 0.10 Bq per gram of carbon. The half-life of C61
erastova [34]

C14 is an isotope used in radiocarbon dating techniques to date organic matter remains. The age of these bones is approximately<u> 6890 years.</u>

<h3>What is Carbon 14?</h3>

Carbon 14, also known as radiocarbon, is a radioactive carbon isotope.

Isotopes are the atoms of the same element -carbon- that vary in neutrons and, hence, in their massic number. They are alternative forms of the same element.

The radioactive C14 nucleus contains 6 protons and 8 neutrons and has a half-life of 5730 years.

The term half-life is a reference. It means that an organism that has been dead for 5730 years has half the C14 amount or concentration than the same organism had when it was alive.

Knowing the half-life of an element is useful to determine the age of the dead matter.

C14 is used in radiocarbon dating techniques or methods to estimate the age of fossils. This is a reliable technique used for dating organic samples that are less than 50,000 years old.

<u>Available data</u>:

  • The half-life of C14 is 5730 years
  • Bones activity of 0.10 Bq per gram of carbon

To answer this question we can make use of the following equation

Ln (C14T₁/C14 T₀) = - λ T₁

Where,

  • C14 T₀ ⇒ Amount of carbon in a living body. We know, by bibliography, that living organism activity is 0.23 Bq per gram of carbon. So, C14 T₀ = 0.23 Bq/g
  • C14T₁ ⇒ Amount of carbon in the dead body. C14T₁ = 0.1 Bq/g
  • λ ⇒ radioactive decay constant = (Ln2)/T₀,₅
  • T₀,₅ ⇒ The half-life of carbon 14 = 5730 years
  • T₀ = Time when the organism was alive
  • T₁ = Age of bones

Let us first calculate the radioactive decay constant.

λ = (Ln2)/T₀,₅

λ = 0.693/5730

<u>λ = 0.0001209</u>

Now, let us calculate the first term in the equation

Ln (C14T₁/C14 T₀) = Ln (0.1/0.23) = Ln 0.4347 =<u> - 0.833</u>

Finally, let us replace the terms, clear the equation, and calculate the value of T₁.

Ln (C14T₁/C14 T₀) = - λ T₁

- 0.833 = - 0.0001209 x T₁

T₁ = - 0.833 / - 0.0001209

T₁ =  6889.99 ≅ <u>6890 years</u>

The bones are approximately<u> 6890 years.</u>

During El Niño, what do the unusual wind patterns move east?
ipn [44]

Answer: warm water

El Nino is a climate change pattern which describes the unusual warming of water of Pacific Ocean. The atmospheric pressure above the water decreases. The warm water increases the temperature of wind. The warm wind moves towards the East Equator.

Semipermeable cell membranes are made of phospholipids that form a bilayer. What major benefit does this arrangement of the memb
Andrej [43]

Answer:

The correct answer would be c. The cell has a greater level of structural support.

Phospholipds are the structural units of a cell membrane. They are consist of two components; hydrphobic lipids and hydrophylic polar heads.

They make a bilayer structure in which polar heads are in contact with water and lipid part are embedded within the layer.

  • Lipid bilayer gives the rigidity or shape to the cell.  
  • It isolates the cell from the sorroundings.
  • It is semi-permiable in nature and thus prevents or control the movement of substances across the membrane.
  • Being liquid in nature, the cytoplasm would have dispersed in the surrounding in absence of cell membrane.

Hence, most appropriate choice would be c. The cell has a greater level of structural support.
