Converting Uranium to thorium by decresing the number of protons from 92 to 90 and decreasing the number of neutrons from146 to 144 is an example of Alpha Decay. 

Alpha Decay is a radioactive decay in which an atomic nucleus emits an alpha particle and <span>nucleus left behind has its atomic number reduced by 2 and its mass number reduced by 4. See attached picture for the complete reaction.</span>

If a germ-line cell from a frog contains 10 picograms of DNA during G1 of interphase, then how many picograms of DNA would be pr
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

10

Explanation:

The cell cycle is composed of three states: interphase, cell division and resting.

The interphase is composed of 3 phases: G1, S and G2 (in this order). During this state the cell prepares itself  for cell division. As part of the preparation the cell duplicates all its genetic material, that is, all its chromosomes. This duplication is done during the phase S.

During the meiotic cell division (composed of meiosis 1 and meiosis 2) a single diploid mother  cell (with duplicated chromosomes) produces four haploid daughter cells. the meiosis 1 produces two haploid cells with duplicated chromosomes, and the meiosis 2 produces 4 haploid cells with normal chromosomes (no duplicated).

If a germ-line cell from a frog contains 10 picograms of DNA during G1, then this cell will have 20 picograms of DNA before the product of the first meiotic division, and will have 10 picograms at the begining of the meiosis 2 (i.e prophase II)
