Answer:
A quarter of the sample.
Explanation:
Let the quantity at the beginning be T. If the element has a half-life of 1,000 years, it means that after 1000 years, T/2 (which represents half the initial quantity available) would have decayed, remaining T/2.
After another 1000 years (making 2000 years), T/4 (which represents have of the quantity left after the first 1000 years) would have decayed, remaining T/4.
This means that only a quarter of T would be left after 2000 years.
Having two copies of the mutated genes cause sickle cell anemia, but having just one copy does not, and can actually protect against malaria - an example of how mutations are sometimes beneficial.
The majority of mutations have neither negative nor positive effects on the organism in which they occur. These mutations are called neutral mutations. Examples include silent point mutations. They are neutral because they do not change the amino acids in the proteins they encode.
Hope this helped :)
Answer:
The correct options are:
2. From solutions that evaporate
4. From hot water solutions when the solution cools
Explanation:
The substances that can form minerals can be dissolved in the water to form a solution. Solution can be described as as a mixture in which a solute is dissolved in a solvent. When a particular dissolved solute evaporates from the solution, crystals of minerals might form. The mineral halite was formed when seas evaporated over a period of time.
The minerals can also be formed when a hot water solution gets cooled.
