<u>ANSWER:</u>

Contaminated clothing is not a high level radioactive waste but a low level radioactive waste.  

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

  • Radio-active waste is any waste that contains radio-active material and is usually a "by-product" of nuclear reactions. Radio-active waste is considered to be hazardous for all forms of life as well as the environment.
  • High level radio-active waste contains high levels of radio-active material and therefore must be disposed as soon as possible. Contaminated clothing has very low level of radio-active waste that can be removed by washing in appropriate medium.

The process that produces gametes is called meiosis. During meiosis, homologous chromosomes (1 from each parent) pair along their lengths.

Can someone help me with facts about rainforests? I have to do a project and I'm stumped.
jeka57 [31]
Rainforest cover only 2 % of the total surface area of the Earth but in spite of that about 50 % of plants and animals that live on the Earth live there.

By definition rainforests are forests that recieve high amounts of rainfall so you can actually find rainforests in Alaska for example (other examples: Canada, Asia, Africa, Latin and South-America)

About 1/4 of natural medicines are found in rainforests. 70 % or more of the plants that are used to treat cancer are found only in tropical rainforest on the planet.

Trees in tropical rainforests are so dense that it takes approximately 10 min for the rainfall to reach the ground from canopy.
