Answer:
A radioactive (unstable) phosphorus isotope is made to replace a nonradioactive isotope of phosphorus in the molecule
Explanation:
Phosphorus has both unstable (radioactive) and stable isotopes. In any compound that contains phosphorus, the phosphorus atom present may be either a stable isotope of phosphorus or an unstable isotope of phosphorus.
However, if the molecule contains a stable nonradioactive isotope of phosphorus, it is possible to convert this isotope in the molecule to the unstable radioactive isotope by carefully carrying out exchange reactions in which the phosphorus isotope replaces the nonradioactive isotope in the molecule.
This is usually done in order to create radioactive tracers which are used to study chemical reactions and biochemical processes.
Answer:
<u>23</u> chromosomes
Explanation:
Each daughter cell <u>will have half of the original 46 chromosomes</u>, or 23 chromosomes. Each chromosome consists of 2 sister chromatids. The daughter cells now move in to the third and final phase of meiosis: meiosis II.
A.An enzyme functions to increase the rate of a chemical reaction.
A cell is <span>the smallest structural and functional unit of an organism. It effects the body by making and strengthening tissue, fighting unwanted cells, and by giving off oxygen throughout the body.</span>
