Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
Enzymes are involved in most of the chemical reactions that take place in organisms. About 4,000 such reactions are known to be catalyzed by enzymes, but the number may be even higher.
Answer:
This question lacks options, the options are:
A. chemical energy -> kinetic energy
B. kinetic energy -> solar energy
C. solar energy -> chemical energy
D. kinetic energy -> nuclear energy
The correct answer is A.
Explanation:
All living organisms need energy to carry out certain processes in their body. This energy is obtained in form of ATP (chemical energy) when their food molecules is broken down via a process called CELLULAR RESPIRATION.
This chemical energy (ATP) is needed to perform cellular processes in the body. According to this question, a chipmunk (animal) will utilize the energy it derives (ATP) from breaking down plant sugars to carry out its cell processes. This means that it will transform CHEMICAL ENERGY → KINETIC ENERGY.
Note that, kinetic energy is the energy due to motion in the Chipmunk.
Answer:
The answer is most likely the 3rd option.
Well there is in fact other life in outer space but in the form of bacteria
Answer:
The process that Mildred used is known as Radiocarbon dating
Note: The question is incomplete. The complete question is given below:
Mildred collects a sample of fossilized plant material. She takes it back to her lab to run some tests on it. Mildred is able to measure the amount of carbon-14 in her sample and compare this to the amount of carbon-12 in it. She uses this information to calculate that the fossil is 4,500 year old. The process that Mildred used is known as _______
Radiocarbon dating
Faulting
Indexing
Superposition
Explanation:
Radiocarbon dating is a process of determining the age estimates of various objects and materials using the radioactive properties of an isotope of carbon, carbon-14.
Radiocarbon dating uses the ratio of two isotopes of carbon, carbon-12 and carbon-14 present in materials which contains carbon to determine their age.
There is a fairly constant ratio of carbon-12 and carbon-14 in living organisms. However, at death, due to the decay of carbon-14 to carbon-12, the ratio begins to change. Since the rate of decay of carbon-14 is fairly constant, a property known as half-life, the time it has taken for carbon-14 to decay to carbon-12 can be calculated. This calculated time will givee the age of the fossilised material.
