The half-life of carbon-14 is equal to 5730 years. The amount of substance with half-life h at any time t is equal to,
At = (Ao) x (1 - 0.5)^(t/h)
Substituting,
At/Ao = 0.67 = 0.5^(t/5730)
The value of t from the equation is 3310.6 years.
"Meiosis II is not completed until after the egg cell makes contact with the sperm cell." This is false because, for both genders, meiosis splits into haploid cells. The end of Meiosis II would be when the four haploid cells are separated.
Answer:
Earliest- gametophyte dominance, sporophyte dependence
Middle- sporophyte dominance, gametophyte independence
Recent- sporophyte dominance, gametophyte dependence
Explanation:
The life cycle of plant alternates between the two phases: the haploid gametophyte which produces gametes and the diploid sporophyte which produces spores. The evolution of land plants shows how these are dependent on each other in terms of the requirement of nutrition.
In bryophytes, the gametophyte is the dominant phase on which the sporophyte depended. Later in pteridophytes, the sporophyte became dominant which is present in the later evolved groups namely the gymnosperms and the angiosperms. The gametophyte was independent on the sporophyte but in angiosperms and gymnosperms, it is dependent.
