Potassium-40 has a half life of 1.251×billion<span> years</span><span>. To determine the percentage potassium-40 remaining after 3.9 billion years, divide
3.9 by 1.251, = 3.12.
This is the number of times the original amount of potassium-40 reduces by 50%. The remaining percentage is therefore 100%/(3.12 * 2) = 16.03%.</span>
Can you reright it in English?
some important molecules are too large to pass through the cell membrane.
Hope this helps!

Glutamine and glutamate are the primary nitrogen donors for biosynthetic reactions in the cell. Glutamine is an α-amino acid that is used in the biosynthesis of proteins. Its side chain is similar to that of glutamic acid, except the carboxylic acid group is replaced by an amide. It is classified as a charge-neutral, polar amino acid. It is non-essential and conditionally essential in humans, meaning the body can usually synthesize sufficient amounts of it, but in some instances of stress, the body's demand for glutamine increases, and glutamine must be obtained from the diet. Glutamate is generally acknowledged to be the most important transmitter for normal brain function. Nearly all excitatory neurons in the central nervous system<span> are glutamatergic, and it is estimated that over half of all brain synapses release this agent. Glutamate plays an especially important role in clinical neurology because elevated concentrations of extracellular glutamate, released as a result of neural injury, are toxic to neurons</span>
