Answer:

C-14 from fossil had reached itshalf life

Explanation:

For radiactive isotopes (such as Carbon-14), per definition; the semi life or semi disintegration period; is defined as the time for which a certain mass isotope mass disintegrates to half of the atoms that make it up

For Carbon-14, this semi life period is 5730 years , and for the above example, as it is mentioned that we originally had 254 grams of C-14 but we currently have 127 grams (this is, exaclt half of the original mass of 254 grams), this leads us that 5730 years have passed since the original mass and the final mass (that is, one semi life period of C-14)

What does NADP+ want to carry outside of the thylakoids?
Rudiy27
In the light-dependent reactions, which take place at the thylakoid membrane, chlorophyll absorbs energy from sunlight and then converts it into chemical energy with the use of water. ... The lower energy form, NADP+, picks up a high energy electron and a proton and is converted to NADPH.

1. How does our ecological footprint affect each of the spheres on Earth?
Viefleur [7K]
Lithosphere (or geosphere) describes all the rocks, minerals and molten magma found on or in the Earth

The hydrosphere describes all the water on Earth – including liquid water (oceans, etc.) and vapour (precipitation)

The atmosphere describes the layer of gases surrounding the Earth and is divided into sections (stratosphere, etc.)

The biosphere is composed of all the living organisms on the planet (including plants, animals, bacteria, etc.)


The four spheres are interconnected, so human impact on one sphere will potentially effect other spheres

The release of plastic pollution into the oceans (hydrosphere) will impact on marine life (biosphere)

The production and release of CFCs into the atmosphere will effect the impact of UV radiation on the biosphere
