Answer:

Half-life, in radioactivity, the interval of time required for one-half of the atomic nuclei of a radioactive sample to decay (change spontaneously into other nuclear species by emitting particles and energy), or, equivalently, the time interval required for the number of disintegrations per second of a radioactive

How do structures and functions of organisms vary in different kingdoms????
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

With millions of different kinds of organisms in the world, scientists must find order in all of this diversity. Scientists group living organisms into one or more of a few major categories as part discipline known as taxonomy. The bodies of organisms are organized into functional systems—cells are organized into tissues, and tissues are organized into organs. Body systems carry out critical functions, such as locomotion, reproduction, digestion, and circulation. All living things on Earth are composed of the same carbon-based, molecular building blocks.

Which structure would be unaffected by the peripheral nervous system?
Sphinxa [80]
For the answer to the question above, the peripheral nervous system governs <span>all structures outside the brain and spinal cord. Peripheral nerves branch from the spinal cord through the foramen transversarium of each vertebrae. I suppose the structure it would not affect is the brain itself since cranial nerves are responsible for brain activity. Also, the spinal cord would also be unaffected since it is just a cylindrical bundle of nerve fibers that allow the connection of the peripheral nerves to the brain.</span>

Why can polyploidy individuals lead to speciation fairly quickly?
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

In species with polyploid, there are more chromosomal sets than in diploid one. Becouse there are more chromosomal structures available,  events like mutation, recombination, DNA lose, are more probable to occur.

As the generations pass, the accumulation of these changes tend polyploid to speciation.
