The answer is c) gamete production

The answer would be letter C. Gamete production.

If you'd like to know why:

The sole purpose of meiosis is the production of gametes, or in other words, sex cells. Unlike in mitosis, the daughter cells are not identical to the parent cell. They have half of the number of chromosomes of the parent cell, so in short the cell that is produced is different.

Mitosis on the other hand, produces identical cells, or daughter cells that are identical to the parent cell, which makes them purposeful in growth and wound repair. They produce the same kind of cell, each time.

The half-life of hydrogen-3 (tritium) is approximately 12 years. In how many years will half of a 20-gram sample decay by beta r
anyanavicka [17]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

12 years

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are given;

Half life of hydrogen-3 is 12 years

Initial mass of Hydrogen-3 is 20 grams

Final mass will be 10 g because we are told half of the sample will decay.

To find the time taken for the decay we need to know what half life is;

  • Half life is the time taken for a radioactive isotope to decay to half its original amount.
  • Using the formula;

Remaining mass = Original mass × 0.5^n

n = number of half lives

therefore;

10 g = 20 g × 0.5^n

0.5 = 0.5^n

n = log 0.5 ÷ log 0.5

  = 1

But, 1 half life is 12 years

Therefore, the time taken is 12 years
