The most active geothermal resources are usually found along major tectonic plate boundaries where most volcanoes are located. One of the most active geothermal areas in the world is called the Ring of Fire, which encircles the Pacific Ocean.

When magma comes near the earth's surface, it heats ground water trapped in porous rock or water running along fractured rock surfaces and faults. Hydrothermal features have two common ingredients: water (hydro) and heat (thermal).

Geologists use various methods to find geothermal reservoirs. Drilling a well and testing the temperature deep underground is the most reliable method for locating a geothermal reservoir.

Potassium has a half-life of 12 hours. What fraction of a 100g sample is left after 48 hours
EastWind [94]

Answer:

After 48 hours amount left = 6.25 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Half life of potassium = 12 hours

Total mass = 100 g

Mass left after 48 hours = ?

Solution:

Number of half lives passed:

Number of half lives = Time elapsed / half life

Number of half lives = 48 hours/ 12 hours

Number of half lives = 4

At time zero = 100 g

At first half life = 100 g/ 2 = 50 g

At 2nd half life = 50 g/2 = 25 g

At 3rd half life = 25 g/2 = 12.5g

At 4th half life = 12.5 g/2 = 6.25 g

Why is the axis important for seasons?

Which of the following organic molecules may have up to four levels of structure? A. Proteins B. Lipids C. Nucleic Acids D. Carb
masha68 [24]
The correct answer is proteins.

Proteins have four structures; (1) primary, (2) secondary, (3) tertiary, and (4) quaternary. Primary structures of proteins are formation of peptides and the peptide bonds between amino acids. Secondary structures of proteins involves the amino acid composition leading to hydrophobic interactions forming either alpha helices or beta sheets. Interactions between secondary structures of proteins will make the tertiary structure which is either soluble (globular) or insoluble (fibrous) proteins. Quaternary structures are the combination of two or more tertiary structures and these are called subunits.
