Page 1 Page 2 Radioactive decay involves the changing of a radioactive atom into another radioactive atom. For example, rocks an

d minerals may contain potassium-40 that changes into argon-40. Mass spectrometers measure the number of these atoms in a rock or mineral sample. This information and knowing the half-life of potassium-40 can help determine the age of rock layers. The half-life of potassium-40 is 1.3 billion years. The potassium-40 in rocks and minerals will decay through many half-lives until all of them change into argon-40. How many atoms will there most likely be at the third half-life of potassium-40 in this model? A model rock layer had 50 pennies (atoms of potassium-40). How old is the rock layer?

Pepsinogen is produced by __________ and is activated by __________
Ket [755]

Answer:

Pepsinogen is produced by chief cells and is activated by hydrochloric acid secreted by parietal cells.

Explanation:

Pepsinogen is a proenzyme produced in the chief cells (that are located in the stomach lining) that, when gets activated, is transformed into pepsin - a peptidase with the function to degrade proteins into amino acids.

The reason why pepsinogen is released inactive is that it would break down all of the cell's proteins because of its proteolytic nature. For this reason, it is released as a proenzyme and gets activated when reaches the acidic environment provided by the hydrochloric acid secreted by the parietal cells, also in the stomach lining.

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

31. Seatbelts lock in place to make sure you don't go flying into the windshield.

32. Friction causes the soccer ball to slow down. If we were to kick a soccer ball in space, where there is no friction, it would keep on rolling until it eventually hits something or goes out of sight.

33. Heavier loads will make the vehicle move off of the table. The heavier the weight, the quicker the  vehicle will roll. Loads that are something very similar or lighter than the vehicle won't make the vehicle move by any means.

34. Gravity is the power pulling the piano toward the Earth.

Friction would happen with an unpleasant surface, making it a lot harder to push the piano up the ramp.

35. Wagon C

Wagon C has the least boxes and minimal measure of mass, making it simplest to move.

36. I would move the crates so every cart has a similar measure of boxes, making them equivalent in mass. This would make them all take a similar measure of power to move them.

What two characteristics do fungi lack that forced them to become decomposers
Artist 52 [7]
Fungi are decomposers, they obtain their food from dead organic matters. Fungi obtain their nutrient this way because they can not produce their own food. To produce their own food they need chloroplast in their cells to obtain energy from the sun. And they also need the ability to fix nitrogen which they will incorporate into the food they produce. Because they lack the ability to do this thing, they have to adapt to eating dead materials. <span />
