The use of oxygen-18 (heavy oxygen) has aided biologists in determining that O2 released in photosynthesis comes from the chemic

Answer:

The correct option is A. Algae

Explanation:

Algae is the best possible answer because the process of photosynthesis can be carried out only by plants, algae and cyanobacteria.  Hence, option A is correct. These organisms are called autotrophs as they are capable of making their own food.

Other organisms like paramecium, arthropods and fungi are not capable of photosynthesis. These organisms like arthropods are called heterotrophs. They do not make their own food and feed on other organisms for food.

A geologist is studying two different rhyolite flows to determine if they were erupted at the same time.
ss7ja [257]
Q1. The answer is 1.

It can be calculated using the equation:

 (1/2)ⁿ = x

x - decimal amount remaining, 

n - a number of half-lives.


x = 50% = 50/100 = 0.5

n = ?

(1/2)ⁿ = 0.5

log((1/2)ⁿ) = log(0.5)

n * log(1/2) = log(0.5)

n * log(0.5) = log(0.5)

n = log(0.5)/log(0.5)

n = 1


Q10. The answer is 2.


It can be calculated using the equation:

 (1/2)ⁿ = x

x - decimal amount remaining, 

n - a number of half-lives.


Rhyolite #2 has 25% of the parent H remaining:

x = 25% = 25/100 = 0.25

n = ?

(1/2)ⁿ = 0.25

log((1/2)ⁿ) = log(0.25)

n * log(1/2) = log(0.25)

n * log(0.5) = log(0.25)

n = log(0.25)/log(0.5)

n = -0.602 / - 0.301

n = 2



Q3. The answer is 100 million years.


A number of half-lives (n) is a quotient of total time elapsed (t) and length of half-life (H):

n = t/H

n = 1

t = ?

H = 100 000 000 years


n = t/H

t = n * H

t = 1 * 100 000 000 years

t = 100 000 000 years<span>
