To convert factor I (fibrinogen) into a fibrin clot
Multiply 5730 years by 2 since two half-lives have gone by for carbon.
<u>Explanation</u>:
The half-life of a radioactive isotope depicts the measure of time that it takes half of the isotope in an example decay. On account of radiocarbon dating, the half-existence of carbon 14 is 5,730 years
The half-life of carbon-14 is 5730 years.
In this manner, after
1 half-life there is 50 % = 1/2 of the first amount left.
2 half-lives there is 25 % = 1/4 of the first amount left.
25% is two half-lives.
Every 50% of life requires 5730 years.
So two half-lives require 2 × 5730
Translation of mRNA into a peptide occurs in sequences of 3 nucleotides called codons. Each codon codes for one amino acid. Therefore, as the ribosome reads the codon sequence, it recruits a t-RNA carrying the respective amino acid. A peptide bond is thereafter formed on the growing amino acid chain before the ribosome translocates to read the next codon. This continues until the ribosome reads a stop codon signaling the end of the peptide.
