Groundwater contamination occurs when man-made products such as gasoline, oil, road salts and chemicals get into the groundwater and cause it to become unsafe and unfit for human use. Materials from the land's surface can move through the soil and end up in the groundwater. That is why pollution can contaminate an aquifer.

hope this helps:)

To calibrate the x-axis for 14C decay, you have to convert half-lives to number of years. Recall that 14C has a single half-life

hjlf

Answer:

d. 28,650 years

Explanation:

Since 14C has a single half-life of 5,730 years

The number of years that is going to make up 5 half-lives for 14C will be;

5,730 years × 5 = 28,650 years

Human and sperm whale myoglobin have very similar primary structures. Which of the following statements are correct? a. The two

Mandarinka [93]

Question is incomplete ,complete question is as follows :

Human and sperm whale myoglobin have very similar primary structures. Which of the following statements are correct?

1) The two proteins are very likely related evolutionarily.

2) The differences in the sequences in many instances represent a conservative change (such L for I).

3) The differences in the sequences in many instances represent a nonconservative change (such as D for A).

4) There is no correlation between the two proteins since they originate from very different species.

Human and sperm whale myoglobin have very similar primary structures. Which of the following statements are correct?

A) Statements 1 and 2 are correct.

B) Statements 1, 2, and 4 are correct.

C) Statements 1, 2, and 3 are correct.

D) All of the listed statements are correct.

Answer:

A) Statements 1 and 2 are correct.

Explanation:

As the Human and sperm whale myoglobin are very likely related evolutionarily hence option a is correct.

The differences in the sequences in many instances represent a conservative change (such as L for I) hence option b is also correct.

While all the other options are not correct.
