Adaptations are
the result of evolution in different living organisms. This process occurs amazingly
through gene mutation but it takes a very long period in time. Adaptation
processes occur to help species survive and thrive in the ecological balance of
life. Structural adaptations are physical features of an organism that adapted
through time. An example of this are the bills of a bird and the fur of bears
that they generally need for their survival; birds for hunting, and bears to
protect them from low climate areas.

Functional or
Behavioral adaptations refer to particular things that an organism or organisms
do to survive. In the example above, behavioral adaptations that birds do is
through certain bird calls and migration, while bears hunt during warmer
seasons and hibernate during winter season. </span>
Biodegradability and what chemicals are produced when it is broken down.
Answer:
A radioactive (unstable) phosphorus isotope is made to replace a nonradioactive isotope of phosphorus in the molecule
Explanation:
Phosphorus has both unstable (radioactive) and stable isotopes. In any compound that contains phosphorus, the phosphorus atom present may be either a stable isotope of phosphorus or an unstable isotope of phosphorus.
However, if the molecule contains a stable nonradioactive isotope of phosphorus, it is possible to convert this isotope in the molecule to the unstable radioactive isotope by carefully carrying out exchange reactions in which the phosphorus isotope replaces the nonradioactive isotope in the molecule.
This is usually done in order to create radioactive tracers which are used to study chemical reactions and biochemical processes.
