Ovules produced by an entirely green plant contain a rare mutation in a nuclear gene that is involved in chlorophyll synthesis,

Answer:

The plant will produce less chlorophyll

Explanation:

The plant still has a functional allele provided by the paternal gamete, thereby the leaves have this enzyme required for chlorophyll biosynthesis. In consequence, the plant can produce chlorophyll pigment but in less quantity, since it has only a functional allele coding for a key enzyme involved in the chlorophyll pathway

Strontium-90 has a half life of 29 years, how much strontium-90 is left from the Chicago pile reactor that was active around 87
agasfer [191]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

The half life of a substance is the time required by that substance to reduce to half of its initial value. The half life is calculated using the formula:

N(t)=N_o(\frac{1}{2} )^\frac{t}{t_\frac{1}{2} } \\\\where\ N(t)=quantity\ of\ substance \ remaining, N_o=initial\ quantity\\of\ substance, t=time\ and \ t_\frac{1}{2}=half\ life\ of\ substance

Given that t = 87 years, half life = 29 years, therefore the quantity of strontium-90 left is:

N(t)=N_o(\frac{1}{2} )^\frac{87}{29} \\\\N(t)=N_o(\frac{1}{2} )^\frac{t}{t_\frac{1}{2} } \\\\N(t)=N_o(\frac{1}{2} )^3\\\\N(t)=\frac{1}{8} N_o

That is one-eight of Strontium 90 would be left after 87 years

What combines to form rocks<br><br>minerals <br>Crystal's<br>other rocks​
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

A rock is a collection of minerals. In a cooling lava, mineral crystals do not have time to form and are very small. The chemical composition will be the same as if the magma cooled slowly. Existing rocks may be heated enough so that the molecules are released from their structure and can move around.
