Answer:

A

Explanation:

1 half-life = .4 kg = 15 years

2 half-life = .2 kg = 30 years

3 half-life = .1 kg = 45 years

4 half-life = .05 kg = 60 years

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Initial mass is 8. The half-life is 15 years.

1st half life=.8/2=.4

2nd half life=.4/2=.2

3rd half life=.2/2=.1

4th half life=.1/2=.05

For each half life that it took it to go from .8 to 0.05, you add 15 years since that is the half life of the substance. 4*15=60.

So, the answer is A. The material decayed from 0.8 kilograms to 0.05 kilogram in 60 years.

Identify the answer below that is NOT a function of a protein.
Zinaida [17]

Insulation and long-term energy storage

The function of FATS is insulation and long-term energy storage. Excess glucose in the body is converted to fats and then stored in certain location like liver, around the heart, and under the skin. The fats are converted back to glucose during starvation. Fats are deposited under the skin to provide insulation against heat loss.

Explanation:

Proteins are the mains structural molecules in the body. They are coded for by the DNA in cells that instruct how these proteins should be manufactured. Proteins make up the muscle tissues, most enzymes, antibodies, hormones, hair, nails, and etcetera. Protein is broken down for energy as a last resort during total starvation (when fat deposits have been exhausted) and when this happens it leads to body wastage. Glucose is the main energy source of cells.

What cell structure is responsible for translation?
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

Ribosome

Explanation:

The entire process is called gene expression. In translation, messenger RNA (mRNA) is decoded in a ribosome, outside the nucleus, to produce a specific amino acid chain, or polypeptide. The polypeptide later folds into an active protein and performs its functions in the cell.
