Answer: E) provide the defense for the CNS
Explanation:
Astrocytes can be defined as one of the cell types in the central nervous system. These are the dominant glial cell found in the brain. These cells perform a variety of functions in the brain. The functions includes axon guidance, synaptic support, controlling the blood brain barrier and blood flow. These cells maintain the chemical environment in the brain especially around the neuron.
These cells do not provide to the central nervous system.
A radioactive element is an element which is subject to spontaneous degeneration of its nucleus followed by the emission of alpha, beta and gamma particles. All elements with atomic numbers greater than 83 are radioactive.
The given phrases that describe radioactive elements are-
They have a consistent number of particles
- the particles are alpha, beta and gamma particles.
They have a half-life that determines their rate of decay.
Explanation for other options:
Not all elements occur in nature. Radioactive decay rates may not be constant as the decay happens when a radioactive substance emits a particle. It is not possible to predict exactly when a given atom of a substance will emit a particular particle. When the radioactive element release energy and particles, it decays.

C. Shield Volcano.. think of Hawaiian volcanoes,they are basaltic eruptions, very effusive and unexplosive and are characterised by slow lava movement and very little tephra from the eruption. The basalt erupted is very hard, dense rock and so can be built up easily.
The water molecules enter a gaseous state called water vapor. So water Evaporates.
