If a robin builds a nest in a big tree, the robin benefits and the tree is not helped or harmed. This type of symbiotic relation
Lynna [10]
tree and nest
If a robin builds a nest in a big tree, the robin benefits and the tree is not helped or harmed. This type of symbiotic relationship is called commensalism, and it is between the tree and the nest/Robin.

<span>There are several types of biotic relationships that is occurring every single moment in the ecosystem and commensalism is one. In contrast, parasitism is the biotic relationship where one organism doesn't benefit from the other and is harmed. In this scenario with human beings and mosquitos, this phenomenon of interaction is distinguished as parasitism where mosquitos draws blood that contains nutrients from the human tissue to use it as its source of food and then leaves harmful substances and bacteria in the human’s blood stream.<span> </span></span>

If 1/8 remains after 21 years, what is the half-life?
vagabundo [1.1K]

Half life formula

The number of unstable nuclei remaining after time t can be determined according to this equation:

N(t) = N(0) * 0.5^(t/T)

where:

N(t) is the remaining quantity of a substance after time t has elapsed.

N(0) is the initial quantity of this substance.

T is the half-life.

It is also possible to determine the remaining quantity of a substance using a few other parameters:

N(t) = N(0) * e^(-t/τ)

N(t) = N(0) * e^(-λt)

τ is the mean lifetime - the average amount of time a nucleus remains intact.

λ is the decay constant (rate of decay).

All three of the parameters characterizing a substance's radioactivity are related in the following way:

T = ln(2)/λ = ln(2)*τ

How to calculate the half life

Determine the initial amount of a substance. For example, N(0) = 2.5 kg.

Determine the final amount of a substance - for instance, N(t) = 2.1 kg.

Measure how long it took for that amount of material to decay. In our experiment, we observed that it took 5 minutes.

Input these values into our half life calculator. It will compute a result for you instantaneously - in this case, the half life is equal to 19.88 minutes.

If you are not certain that our calculator returned the correct result, you can always check it using the half life formula.

If a cell with 12 chromosomes undergoes mitosis, how many daughter cells result and what is the chromosome number in each daught
VMariaS [17]
Mitosis is a kind of cell division that produces 2 daughter cells that is genetically identical to both the other daughter and the parent cell.

By the word genetically identical, it means that they have the same number of chromosomes.

This process starts by a parent cell doubling their chromosomes, then, it divides, and therefore each daughter cells receive the original number of chromosomes.

Therefore, the answer to this question is 2 cells, 12 chromosomes each.

What is meant by evolution through natural selection
VikaD [51]
Hello!

Natural selection is the way that animals evolve. 

The theory of natural selection is that the animals that do not have a specific trait to survive in their environment will die. The animals that do have the trait will survive. The animals that survive will then pass the trait down to their offspring, who will also likely survive because they have the trait. This is how species evolve and continue to survive in their environment. 

The species evolve because only the fittest survive (this is known as "survival of the fittest"). The animals that do not have the needed traits will die and they cannot have offspring. 

I hope this helps answer your question! Have a great day!
