Answer:

<u>O Animal bones</u>

<u />

Explanation:

In the upper atmosphere, Radioactive Carbon-14 is usually produced. In plants, it is incorporated by photosynthesis into organic molecules, later ingested by hetrotrophs.

It is used for the radiocarbon dating process of fossils and formations. Because of the unstable nature of the isotope used and the consistent rate of decay, radioactive isotope dating is an important way of detection in organic material. Here, this is a the measure of the time taken for half of the radioactive material to break down- this is called the half life for Carbon this is 5,730 years.

In animals, the Carbon-14 ingested is eventually incoporated into their bones. After they die, bones become dessicated, and the Carbon 14 is slowly broken down to become Nitrogen.

Olympic athletes train in Colorado Springs, Colorado because this location is at high altitude and near the 14,000 foot Pikes Pe
Stels [109]

Answer:

A: Oxygen levels are low and, therefore, more red blood cells are produced, giving the athletes an advantage when competing at lower altitudes.

Explanation:

<em>At high altitudes, the partial pressure of oxygen is lower compared to lower altitudes</em>. The body system try to adjust to lower oxygen level by undergoing several physiological changes. Depending on the duration spent in high altitude, the body can either try to adjust in the short term or acclimatize for a longer term.

One of the processes the body undergoes during acclimatization is an increase in red blood cell production. The kidney secretes erythropotein in response to inadequate oxygen in body tissues, and this makes the liver to increase erythrocyte production.

The increase in red blood cell production correspondingly increases the oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood as a result of increased hemoglobin. This condition persists for a few weeks even after the body returns to lower altitude where oxygen is adequate. Increased oxygen capacity means the rate of energy production (through respiration) within the body will also increase

<em>Hence, those who acclimatize to high altitude usually experience increased capillary density, tissue perfusion and improved athletic performance at lower altitudes. </em>

The correct option is A.

Verdich [7]

Answer:

D. Aids

Explanation:

Aids is one of the most deadliest diseases in the world. When you contract aids, it's designed to infect the cells that try to destroy it, it's a whole zombie apocalypse in your body and you don't even know it.

It attacks and weakens the immune system, and our immune system defends our bodies against infections, but HIV is extremely strong and it over powers the system, I'm not sure if there's an immune system strong enough to fight HIV or aids.

Which is colder 0 C or 32 F
victus00 [196]

Answer: we know that the same temperature was named 0°C and 32°F. We write it 0°C = 32°F, and read it: "A temperature of zero degrees Celsius is the same as a temperature of 32 degrees Fahrenheit." Similarly, 0°F = 160/9°C. ... 23°C is 23°C above 0°C. But 23°C = 23*1.8°F and 0°C = 32°F.
