Which statement is true about nuclear decay

Biology

5 0

Answer:

Nuclear decay rates are constant

Explanation:

Spontaneous decay of unstable nuclei is a process of a statistical nature, it is not possible to predict with certainty when an individual radioactive nucleus will decay, nor can the decay process be influenced in any way.

Therefore, the half-life of radionuclides (specific for each radionuclide) is defined as the time period in which half of the initial number of radioactive nuclei decays.

The unit of measurement for the radioactivity of the material is the becquerel (Bq) and denotes the number of decays in one second (1Bq = 1 decay / 1 second).

Answer:

Option b. Lowering the pH to kill pathogenic bacteria is correct answer.

Explanation:

bacterial motors are sensitive to pH.  By decreasing the pH bacterial motors stops working. This was identified in a new research.  But, with the weak acids and a lower internal pH they slow and ultimately stop moving (became dead).

Reference: Powell, K. Acid stops bacteria swimming. Nature (2003).

1. Biogeography, the study of the geographic distribution of plants, animals, and other forms of life. It is concerned not only with habitation patterns but also with the factors responsible for variations in distribution.

2. weathering and other natural forces break down the substrate, rock, enough for the establishment of certain hearty plants and lichens with few soil requirements, known as pioneer species. These species help to further break down the mineral-rich lava into soil where other, less hardy species can grow and eventually replace the pioneer species. In addition, as these early species grow and die, they add to an ever-growing layer of decomposing organic material and contribute to soil formation. This process repeats multiple times during succession. At each stage, new species move into an area, often due to changes to the environment made by the preceding species, and may replace their predecessors. At some point, the community may reach a relatively stable state and stop changing in composition. However, it's unclear if there is always—or even usually—a stable endpoint to succession.

3. I don’t have the video so I’m going to take. Wild guess. Just look up types of finches

4. Broadly speaking, different species are unable to interbreed and produce healthy, fertile offspring due to barriers called mechanisms of reproductive isolation.
These barriers can be split into two categories based on when they act: prezygotic and postzygotic.

I tried my best hope this helps :)
