Strontium-90 has a half life of 29 years, how much strontium-90 is left from the Chicago pile reactor that was active around 87
agasfer [191]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

The half life of a substance is the time required by that substance to reduce to half of its initial value. The half life is calculated using the formula:

N(t)=N_o(\frac{1}{2} )^\frac{t}{t_\frac{1}{2} } \\\\where\ N(t)=quantity\ of\ substance \ remaining, N_o=initial\ quantity\\of\ substance, t=time\ and \ t_\frac{1}{2}=half\ life\ of\ substance

Given that t = 87 years, half life = 29 years, therefore the quantity of strontium-90 left is:

N(t)=N_o(\frac{1}{2} )^\frac{87}{29} \\\\N(t)=N_o(\frac{1}{2} )^\frac{t}{t_\frac{1}{2} } \\\\N(t)=N_o(\frac{1}{2} )^3\\\\N(t)=\frac{1}{8} N_o

That is one-eight of Strontium 90 would be left after 87 years

Is most of the tubule filtrate reabsorbed into the body or excreted in urine explain?
Airida [17]
I believe the answer to this question is the filtrate is reabsorbed.
This is brought into the system because it still contains the useful products for other biological processes.   Thank you for your question. Please don't hesitate to ask in Brainly your queries.

A) Compare and contrast diffusion, passive transport (diffusion &amp; facilitated), primary active transport and secondary activ
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

<u>Passive transport</u>: It does not need any energy to occur. Happens in favor of an electrochemical gradient. Simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion are kinds of passive transport.

<u>Simple diffusion</u>: molecules freely moves through the membrane.

<u>Facilitated diffusion</u>: molecules are carried through the membrane by channel proteins or carrier proteins.

<u>Active transport</u> needs energy, which can be taken from the ATP molecule (<u>Primary active transport</u>) or from a membrane electrical potential (<u>Secondary active transport</u>).

Explanation:

  • <u>Diffusion</u>: This is a pathway for some <em>small polar hydrophilic molecules</em> that can<em> freely move through the membrane</em>. Membrane´s permeability <em>depends</em> on the <em>size of the molecule</em>, the bigger the molecule is, the less capacity to cross the membrane it has. Diffusion is a very slow process and to be efficient requires short distances and <em>pronounced concentration gradients</em>. An example of diffusion is <em>osmosis</em> where water is the transported molecule.
  • <u>Facilitated diffusion</u>: Refers to the transport of <em>hydrophilic molecules</em> that <em>are not able to freely cross the membrane</em>. <em>Channel protein</em> and many <em>carrier proteins</em> are in charge of this <em>passive transport</em>. If uncharged molecules need to be carried this process depends on <em>concentration gradients</em> and molecules are transported from a higher concentration side to a lower concentration side. If ions need to be transported this process depends on an <em>electrochemical gradient</em>. The <em>glucose</em> is an example of a hydrophilic protein that gets into the cell by facilitated diffusion.

<em>Simple diffusion</em> and <em>facilitated diffusion</em> are <u>passive transport</u> processes because the cell <u><em>does not need any energy</em></u> to make it happen.

  • <u>Active transport</u> occurs <em>against the electrochemical gradient</em>, so <u><em>it does need energy to happen</em></u>. Molecules go from a high concentration side to a lower concentration side. This process is always in charge of <em>carrier proteins</em>. In <u>primary active transport</u> the <em>energy</em> needed <em>comes from</em> the <em>ATP</em> molecule. An example of primary active transport is the <em>Na-K bomb</em>. In <u>secondary active transport</u>, the<em> energy comes from</em> the <em>membrane electric potential</em>.  Examples of secondary active transport are the carriage of <em>Na, K, Mg metallic ions</em>.
