The correct answer is this one: "C) Nnew = Nold + 2." A student is studying a process in which a diploid cell becomes haploid. The CORRECT mathematical model for the process if Nnew is the number of chromosomes in the haploid cell and Nold is the number of chromosomes in the diploid cell is this: <span>new = Nold + 2
</span>
Here are the choices.

<span>A) Nnew = 2·Nold
B) Nnew = Nold 2
C) Nnew = Nold + 2
D) Nnew = Nold × 2</span>

True or False. In pernicious anemia, oxygen depletion in the body becomes apparent withing the first 6 months of life.
mylen [45]

False, pernicious anemia may take up to 5 years to show symptoms. However, the oxygen starts to get depleted within the first 6 months in thalassemia major.

Pernicious anemia:

In this condition, the body is unable to absorb vitamin B12 which leads to lowered amount of red blood cells which are responsible for carrying oxygen throughout the body. It is an autoimmune disease in which antibodies attack their own cells in the lining of the stomach which affects the absorption of vitamin B12. The symptoms of pernicious anemia are dizziness, fatigue, diarrhea, constipation, breathlessness, and loss of appetite. The depletion of oxygen is seen in thalassemia major within 6 months.

While alive, an organism absorbs (radioactive) carbon 14 at such a rate that the proportion of carbon 14 in the organism remains
Inga [223]

Answer:

The person has been dead for approximately 15,300 years

Explanation:

<u>Available data</u>:

  • The half-life of carbon 14 is 5,600 years
  • The human skeleton level of carbon 14 is 15% that of a living human

To answer this question we can make use of the following equation

Ln (C14T₁/C14 T₀) = - λ T₁

Where,

  • C14 T₀ ⇒ Amount of carbon in a living body at time 0 = 100%
  • C14T₁ ⇒ Amount of carbon in the dead body at time 1 = 15%
  • λ ⇒ radioactive decay constant = (Ln2)/T₀,₅
  • T₀,₅ ⇒ The half-life of carbon 14 = 5600 years
  • T₀ = 0
  • T₁ = ???

Let us first calculate the radioactive decay constant.

λ = (Ln2)/T₀,₅

λ = 0.693/5600

λ = 0.000123

Now, let us calculate the first term in the equation

Ln (C14T₁/C14 T₀) = Ln (15%/100%) = Ln 0.15 = - 1.89

Finally, let us replace the terms, clear the equation, and calculate the value of T₁.

Ln (C14T₁/C14 T₀) = - λ T₁

- 1.89 = - 0.000123 x T₁

T₁ = - 1.89 / - 0.000123

T₁ = 15,365 years

The person has been dead for approximately 15,300 years
