Question:

Which value is being measured in the columns labeled "Fraction remaining” and "Percentage remaining”?

years of decay
quantity of energy
number of stable atoms
amount of material that has not decayed

Answer:

"Amount of material that has not decayed" being measured in the columns labelled "Fraction remaining” and "Percentage remaining”

Explanation:

The table shown below having explains about the half life , the amount of sample in both fraction and percentage. The first column named half life elapsed tells us the the number of half life that that is completed. Half life is the time taken for an element to reduce or decay into half of its initial amount.

The fraction remaining column gives the amount of sample that is left behind after the half life particular number of half life has completed. similarly the percentage remaining column gives the amount of sample in percentage. For example, the 5th row tells us that after 4 half life is over $\frac{1}{16} th$ of the sample remained. In percentage it is 6.25%

Stabilization Selection

In Stabilization Selection there is a decrease in the amount of variation. In the case of Stabilization Selection, selective pressures must select against two extremes of a particular trait. Two opposing selection pressures will combine to maintain a median height. Rather than resulting in extremely tall plants or extremely short plants, the majority of the plants in this population will be of medium height. Credit: Kalahira

Around the year 1800, it was discovered that fossils are arranged in comparable patterns within the layers of the Earth. Name 3

frez [133]

Answer:

Study of comparative anatomy emerged in the 18th century and led to establishment of relationship between species based on the common traits

Explanation:

The three major events that occurred after this discovery are –

a) Discovery of the fact that the age of earth is much higher than the age of earth as found in previous theories of continental drift theory

b) The age of the oldest fossils was determined and based on that relative age of all species (as found in fossils) was determined.

c) The determination of age of fossil helped to find the gaps in the evolutionary tree and hence provoked search of these missing species.

The study of comparative anatomy started somewhere around 1800 when George Cuvier emerged as father of comparative anatomy

Based on comparative anatomy study, scientists such as Buffon and Lamarck worked on establishing relationship between species based on the common traits shared between them

A template dna strand contains the sequence 3'-atgctgac-5'. the corresponding sequence in the rna transcript is:

V125BC [204]

The corresponding sequence in the RNA transcript is 5'-UACGACUG-3' . One of the differences between DNA and RNA is the fact that the RNA contains the base uracil instead of thyamine. The base pairing occurs between A and T, and G and C. DNA undergoes the process of transcription in the nucleus to generate RNA, which then undergoes translation (for mRNA) in the cytoplasm to yield proteins.

Explain how xylem cells are adapted for their function.

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

Xylem cells have no cytoplasm or end walls, meaning they form a tube through which water can pass freely to allow water transport. Lignin strengthens the cell walls, helping to support the plant.
