Scientific consensus supports the idea that living organisms require oxygen. Then, a scientist discovers a type of bacteria that

metabolizes sulfur instead of oxygen, and thus survives in environments without oxygen. The scientist concludes that a diverse group of many different organisms could live in an oxygen-free environment. Why should are some scientists skeptical of the scientist’s results and conclusion?

If 1/8 remains after 21 years, what is the half-life?
vagabundo [1.1K]

Half life formula

The number of unstable nuclei remaining after time t can be determined according to this equation:

N(t) = N(0) * 0.5^(t/T)

where:

N(t) is the remaining quantity of a substance after time t has elapsed.

N(0) is the initial quantity of this substance.

T is the half-life.

It is also possible to determine the remaining quantity of a substance using a few other parameters:

N(t) = N(0) * e^(-t/τ)

N(t) = N(0) * e^(-λt)

τ is the mean lifetime - the average amount of time a nucleus remains intact.

λ is the decay constant (rate of decay).

All three of the parameters characterizing a substance's radioactivity are related in the following way:

T = ln(2)/λ = ln(2)*τ

How to calculate the half life

Determine the initial amount of a substance. For example, N(0) = 2.5 kg.

Determine the final amount of a substance - for instance, N(t) = 2.1 kg.

Measure how long it took for that amount of material to decay. In our experiment, we observed that it took 5 minutes.

Input these values into our half life calculator. It will compute a result for you instantaneously - in this case, the half life is equal to 19.88 minutes.

If you are not certain that our calculator returned the correct result, you can always check it using the half life formula.

What are volcanoes and describes the type of volcanoes
Pani-rosa [81]
a volcano is a mountain or hill, typically conical, having a crater or vent through which lava, rock fragments, hot vapor, and gas are being or have been erupted from the earth's crust.

There are three main types of volcano - composite or strato,shield and dome. Composite volcanoes, sometimes known as strato volcanoes, are steep sided cones formed from layers of ash and [lava] flows. The eruptions from these volcanoes may be a pyroclastic flow rather than a flow of lava.

How would flowering plants be affected if bees and butterflies became less common?
Blizzard [7]
Since bees and butterflies both pollen are flowers, the growth (population) of flowering plants would become less common without the pollen being spread.

Compare a diploid and haploid cell
raketka [301]
The main difference between haploid and diploid cells is the number of chromosome sets found in the nucleus. Diploid cells have two sets while haploid cells only contain one set.
