_____________________________

[C. convection in the earths mantle]

As we know that convection in the earth mantle such as magma drive plate tectonics. Heat generated from the radioactive decay of elements deep in the interior of the Earth creates magma in the aesthenosphere. The aesthenosphere is a part of the mantle where the middle sphere of the Earth that extends to 2900 km.

The correct answer to this item is letter

C. convection in earth's mantle

Convection currents move tectonic plates when the rising mantle creates heat inside. The radioactive decay of several substances is responsible for the creation of the convection currents.

Where do the protons and electrons come from that are used in the electron transport chain?
blondinia [14]
The energy generated by the movement of electrons is used to pump electrons across the inner mitochondrial membrane to an area of higher concentration. 17. Where do these protons (H+) come from? The originally came from a glucose molecule and were carried to the electron transport chain by NADH and FADH2.

The answer would be glucose molecule.

Hypochlorous acid decays in the presence of ultraviolet radiation. Assume that degradation occurs accord- ing to first-order kin
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

35.75 days

Explanation:

From the given information:

For first-order kinetics, the rate law can be expressed as:

\mathsf{In \dfrac{C}{C_o} = -kt}

Given that:

the rate degradation constant = 0.12 / day

current concentration C = 0.05 mg/L

initial concentration C₀ = 3.65 mg/L

\mathsf{In( \dfrac{0.05}{3.65})= -(0.12) t}

㏑(0.01369863014) = -(0.12) t

-4.29 = -(0.12)

t = -4.29/-0.12

t = 35.75 days

When a person pushes off a wall with 15N of force,how much force does the wall push back
aivan3 [116]
Newton's third law of motion states that for every action force, there is an equal and opposite reaction force so that means that the wall is pushing you with the same amount of force that you put on it.

Choose the FALSE statement.
Mariana [72]

Answer:

C. The half-life of C-14 is about 40,000 years.

Explanation:

The only false statement from the options is that the half-life of C-14 is 40,000yrs.

The half-life of an isotope is the time it takes for half of a radioactive material to decay to half of its original amount. C-14 has an half-life of 5730yrs. This implies that during every 5730yrs, C-14 will reduce to half of its initial amount.

  • All living organisms contain both stable C-12 and the unstable isotope of C-14
  • The lower the C-14 compared to the C-12 ratio in an organism, the older it is.
