Radioactive dating can determine the age of minerals and fossils in each layer of rock.

Explanation:

Radioactive dating is the most commonly used geological method to determine the age of rocks and fossils layered in the layers of rock on the basis of their natural radioactive decaying.

With the help of the known rate of radioactive decay of isotopes, different types of radiometric dating are done depending upon the material found in the rock layers, like uranium-lead dating or potassium-argon dating.

Radiocarbon dating helps to record organic content in rocks like bones, shells, etc. Age of fossils sediment over sedimentary rocks is determined by combining with the bracketing method.

What important event in translation happens after the incoming trna is in place?
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

Molecules  carrying amino acids are positioned in the  ribosome’s two docking sites.

Explanation:

A ribosome is a molecular machine that  coordinates protein assembly.

  • A ribosome brings together correctly the  mRNA, which needs to be translated, and  the tRNA, which assists in the translation process, to come together correctly.
  • During translation, tRNA molecules  carrying amino acids are positioned in the  ribosome’s two docking sites.
  • After the translation, the tRNA disassemble and is being reused many times.

The systolic arterial blood pressure observed for 20 dogs is normally distributed with a mean of 152 mm of mercury (hg) and a st
Damm [24]

Given: The systolic arterial blood pressure observed for 20 dogs is normally distributed with a mean of 152 mm of mercury (Hg) and a standard deviation of 18 mm of Hg.  

To find: P(100 < 152)

Method: Calculation of Z-Score followed by the probability or area of the bell curve at X = 100.

Solution:

Mean u = 152, std s = 18

Z score = \frac{X-u}{s} = \frac{100-152}{18} = -2.89

The value of P(100<152) is calculated by looking at the value of Z in the Z score for the standard normal distribution given in the image.

P(Z=-2.89) = 0.0019

The P(Z = -2.89) corresponds to the area in the left tail of the bell curve.

Thus the probability of 100 mm Hg blood pressure is 0.0019.
