Q1. The answer is 1.
It can be calculated using the equation:
(1/2)ⁿ = x
x - decimal amount remaining,
n - a number of half-lives.
x = 50% = 50/100 = 0.5
n = ?
(1/2)ⁿ = 0.5
log((1/2)ⁿ) = log(0.5)
n * log(1/2) = log(0.5)
n * log(0.5) = log(0.5)
n = log(0.5)/log(0.5)
n = 1
Q10. The answer is 2.
It can be calculated using the equation:
(1/2)ⁿ = x
x - decimal amount remaining,
n - a number of half-lives.
Rhyolite #2 has 25% of the parent H remaining:
x = 25% = 25/100 = 0.25
n = ?
(1/2)ⁿ = 0.25
log((1/2)ⁿ) = log(0.25)
n * log(1/2) = log(0.25)
n * log(0.5) = log(0.25)
n = log(0.25)/log(0.5)
n = -0.602 / - 0.301
n = 2
Q3. The answer is 100 million years.
A number of half-lives (n) is a quotient of total time elapsed (t) and length of half-life (H):
n = t/H
n = 1
t = ?
H = 100 000 000 years
n = t/H
t = n * H
t = 1 * 100 000 000 years
t = 100 000 000 years<span>

Answer:
Re-producing sexually will allow the sea anemones to give their offspring a more diverse gene pool and can mitigate the risks of a genetic disorder being spread to the offspring because the bad gene has a higher chance become recessive if the gene of the anemone it mates with is more dominant (meaning it wouldn't allow the "bad" gene to show in the offspring) whereas otherwise, the offspring would have the same issues the mother did (assuming it had a bad gene to begin with).
Answer:
b. ventricles
The right and left ventricles
Some living thing's bodies are weaker than others. For the species to live, the strong ones of the species will not get sick, reproduce and create strong offspring. The weak will die out.
