After the 1st half-life 250 g of the radioactive material will be left. 
<span>After the 2nd half-life 125 g of the radioactive material will be left. </span>
<span>After the 3rd half-life 62.5 g of the radioactive material will be left. </span>

<span>Therefore after 60 minutes, 3 half lives would have occurred. </span>

<span>Therefore the half-life = 60 / 3 = 20 minutes when 250 grams of the original material would have remained radioactive. </span>

<span>Therefore the answer is A) About 250 gram of the material decayed in 20 minutes.</span>

There are choices for this question namely:

a. What is your name and where do you live?
b. How much poison did you swallow?
c. How long have you been feeling this way?
<span>d. What have you recently had to eat or drink?
</span>
The correct answer is "what have you recently had to eat or drink". This will confirm the suspicion by first ruling out potential reactive foods or drinks that may have caused a similar reaction (i.e. allergic reactions). If that is ruled out, then the probing about the history of intake of poison will come next in the interview.

Why are microdeletions and microinsertions difficult to diagnosis using karyotyping?
Harman [31]
Because only the chromosomes can be seen in a karyotype, and microdeletions or insertions are mutations at the molecular level, it is virtually impossible to detect such mutations at the chromosomal level.

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

C. Chlamydia. is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Chlamydia is a bacterial sexually transmitted disease, caused by obligate intracellular Chlamydia trachomatis.

In the life of chlamydia, there are two stages of developmental(Reticulate and elementary bodies are two forms of Chlamydia.)

The elementary body is the infectious substance, they are non replicating and have a rigid outer membrane that binds to the receptors present on the host cell and it initiates the infection and due to the rigid outer membrane there, no fusion between the phagosome and the lysosome hence oppose the intracellular killing.

Reticulate bodies are the metabolically active form of a chlamydia and non-infectious.
