Potassium-40 has a half life of 1.251×billion<span> years</span><span>. To determine the percentage potassium-40 remaining after 3.9 billion years, divide
3.9 by 1.251, = 3.12.
This is the number of times the original amount of potassium-40 reduces by 50%. The remaining percentage is therefore 100%/(3.12 * 2) = 16.03%.</span>
By consuming less than 1200 calories a day it impacts a person’s metabolism by slowing it down and forcing the body to break down its own tissues if it is not receiving sufficient calories to withstand vital functions. There are slight side effects of a less than 1200 calories which are faintness, tiredness, irregular periods, and unsteadiness. Some major side effects might have impact on the gallbladder, gout, excruciating inflammation of the joints and also death.
The millions of sequences were not put up together from their end and had no repeating non-coding sequences.
Explanation:
Celera Venter of Gene Myers started working in collaboration with the Human Genome project which was designed as a revolutionary concept of sequencing of human genome at a large scale. Myers break through the traditional method of sequencing and proposed of an idea of sequencing in a unique way.
He suggested the method of breaking genome copies and then sequencing them together using LINEs. However, the declaration of this proposal by the Human project had certain failures at first as it lacked the non-coding repeating sequence.
