Answer:

The correct answer to fill in the blank is: has trouble digesting food.

Explanation:

Cholecystokinin (commonly abbreviated as CCK) is a hormone produced in the gastrointestinal system with <u>the function to stimulate the release of digestive enzymes from the pancreas and bile from the gallbladder in order to help with the digestion of fats and proteins</u>.

If Amanda can't produce cholecystokinin, she will have trouble digesting her food.

You did not included your list of selections.  Some general properties ascribed to DNA are storage and expression of information and variables through mutations.  Replication, Transcription, Translation and Mutagenesis are the major functions of DNA in a cell.  DNA nucleotides contain deoxyribose.  DNA is double-stranded in the conservative mode, the original double Helix remains a complete unit and the new DNA double Helix is produced as a single unit.  In the double=stranded DNA, Hydrogen bonds hold one complimentary strand to the other.

When a living organism dies, it stops taking in new carbon. Thus, as the radioactive carbon-14 decays, the ratio of carbon-12 to
Alexxandr [17]

Answer: The fossil is 11459 years old.

Explanation:

Half-life of carbon-14 = 5700 years

First we have to calculate the rate constant, we use the formula :

k=\frac{0.693}{5700\text{years}}

k=1.21\times 10^{-4}\text{years}^{-1}

Now we have to calculate the age of the sample:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant  = 1.21\times 10^{-4}\text{years}^{-1}&#10;t = age of sample  = ?&#10;a = let initial amount of the reactant  = 100 g&#10;x = amount decayed = 75 g&#10;a - x = amount left after decay process  = 100 - 75 = 25 g  Now put all the given values in above equation, we get&#10;[tex]t==\frac{2.303}{1.21\times 10^{-4}}\log\frac{100}{25}

t=11459years

The fossil is 11459 years old.
