An educated guess that is aslo posed as a tentative explanation is called a hypothesis.
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:
Selective breeding of normal sheep with too much wool sheep.
Explanation:
Selective breeding can lead to some sheep overheating from having too much wool if the sheep of having more wool is crossed with normal wool so the offspring is produced with huge amount of wool on their body that keep its body warm in winter season and overheat in summer season. So the sheep shed their hairs in the summer season in order to reduce overheating of the body.
The answer is relative dating.
A recessive trait inheritance could be more prevalent in a population than the dominant because mutation could occur because the mating does not have a wide variation causing a lethal gene or an autosomal sex link to be easily passed on the offspring
