Help!! Why do geologists radioactive/carbon dating determine absolute age? (i need this quickly!)

Biology
1 answer:
Masja [62]3 years ago
4 0

Absolute dating methods determine how much time has passed since rocks formed by measuring the radioactive decay of isotopes or the effects of radiation on the crystal structure of minerals. Paleomagnetism measures the ancient orientation of the Earth's magnetic field to help determine the age of rocks.

What would happen if a cell did not have mitochondrial
Usimov [2.4K]
Cells that have no mitochondria are unable to convert oxygen into energy, found in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). All multicellular eukaryotic organisms, including plants and animals, have mitochondria in some cells, but prokaryotes and some single-cell eukaryotes do not have mitochondria.

Enzyme hot spring graphing what enzymes probably came from the digestive tract of the mondoni
AURORKA [14]
I found the full exercise on the internet and it describes that there are three enzymes and you want to know which are the two enzymes from the <span>digestive tract of the mondoni and which one is the enzyme from a hot spring.
Attached are two graphs from the analysis of the activity of these enzymes regarding temperature and pH. I found these graphs with the full exercise.
The enzymes that probably came from the </span>digestive tract of the mondoni were enzymes A and B. These enzymes were resistant two lower levels of pH which indicates that they could be present in a <span>digestive tract, which tends to be acidic, while the enzyme C does not tolerate lower pH levels. Enzymes A and B were also more active when in lower temperatures that match temperatures of a normal living organism, whereas enzyme C was more active in higher temperatures matching its probable provenience - a hot spring.</span>
