It acts as a reactant in a chemical reaction.
The decay of uranium isotopes is used to provide information about the age of Earth.
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
Isotopes of Uranium U-232, U-233 , U-234 , U-235 , U-236 , U-238 are used as fuel in nuclear reactors or as explosives for nuclear weapons. Uranium 238 is not very radioactive and it constitutes for nearly 99.3% of natural uranium on Earth and has the longest lifetime: its period is 4.5 billion years, about the age of Earth.
Use of radiometric dating techniques help in defining the age of substances (natural or man-made) using the known decay rates of radioactive elements. Each element has an individual decay rate and half life time.
Two Uranium isotopes (U-238 and U-235) are used for radiometric dating. Both the isotopes have different decay rates and half life period. Both are unstable and radioactive. Since two different isotopes produce two different decay clocks (one as a reference to other), it is beneficial in accurately determining the age of samples. The age of earth (rocks or other natural elements) can be easily determined using Uranium isotopes.
The answer is Triton.Triton <span>is the largest of Neptune's </span>satellites. Triton is unique as it is the only large moon in the Solar System with a rotation opposite that of its planet. The surface of Triton is mostly frozen nitrogen, with a water-ice crust and a rock and metal core.
Answer:
The junction between two neurons is called a Synapse.
The answer is vascular plants.
Vascular plants have <span>specialized tissues that can transport fluids - vascular tissue. This tissue consists of</span><span> xylem and phloem. Xylem transports water and minerals from the root to the upper parts of the plant. Phloem transports food and nutrients from the leaves, where they are produced, to the growing or storage parts of the plants. </span>
