The answer is <span>the radioactive isotope reacts in the same way as stable isotopes in the chemical reactions in the body.

</span>

C-14 and C-12 are carbon isotopes used to measure the approximate age of organic remains. C-12 is stable, and it does not break down into other elements over time. C-14 is not stable. It breaks down into N-14. But, in the body, <span>the radioactive isotope reacts in the same way as stable isotopes in the chemical reactions.</span>

In which way does the circulatory system rely on the skeletal system
Bond [772]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

<em>The marrow in the bones of the skeletal system helps produce the cells in the blood, which is the key fluid of circulatory system</em>

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Skeletal system is a system in the body that is made up of cartilage and calcified bone that work together by helping in the smooth movement process of the body. </u></em>
  • <em><u>Circulatory system on the other hand is a system of the body that is made up of blood vessels that carry blood away and towards the heart. The system helps in transport of oxygen and nutrients in all the body tissues, and also transport of carbon dioxide and wastes out of the tissues.</u></em>
  • <em><u>The calcified bones of the skeletal system work with the circulatory system, such that the bone marrow in these bones helps in the production of blood cells such as red blood cells and white blood cells.</u></em>

What happens when a mechanical wave runs through a medium?
Volgvan

Once this initial energy is added, the wave travels through the medium until all its energy is transferred. In contrast, electromagnetic waves require no medium, but can still travel through one.

In the term trace element, the adjective trace means that
Margarita [4]

Answer:

The elemental is required in very small amount. (Ans. A)

Explanation:

Trace element is also known as micro-nutrient. It is also defined as any chemical element required by living organisms in a minute or small amounts which is usually part of the vital enzyme (cells produced by catalytic protein).

Exact needs of trace elements vary among species, like commonly required plant trace elements are cooper, zinc, manganese, boron, and molybdenum. Animals commonly required iodine, manganese, and cobalt.

Absence of necessary plant trace elements required by plants in the soil causes deficiency disease, lack of animal trace elements used by animals in the soil may not harm plants, but, animals feeding on those plants develop their deficiency disease.

So, the adjective trace means that the elemental is required in a very small amount.
