what is half-life of mercury-203
Answer:
The correct answer is - 47 days approximately.
Explanation:
In this given graph is the decay graph of mercury-203, there is a representation of the relation of change in the amount of the mercury -203 with the time in days. The red arch is showing the change of parent isotope percent with elapsed time and the green dashed arch showing the daughter isotope percentage with isotope.
The half-life is the required time to decay an element to half of its inital amount, according to the definition the half-life of parent isotope mercury-203 is the amount where the red arch is present at 50% in the graph that is 47 days approximately.

Answer: earths climate it will affect the system by destroying animals habitat cause air pollution and eventually there will be plastic and trash in the rainforest that wasn't there before
this is a negative effect because building a road will hurt the local ecosystem by putting humans in contact with wildlife and can/will cause a disease transfer in the wildlife's population or the human population.
logging companies it will severely damage the rainforest and its wildlife there causing irreversible damage to the ecosystem
tis is a negative effect because deforestation in the largest forest in the world is not good for the environment carbon dioxide will begin to build up and oxygen levels will start to decline.

B. How does its genotype and phenotype
differ from the non-circled offspring?
Someone answer me please
Answer:
Due to mutation.
Explanation:
The genotype and phenotype of circled offspring is different from the non-circled offspring because it has different genetic makeup, that is responsible for its different color. The change in the circled offspring's genotype was caused by a mutation. Mutation is a change that occurs in the DNA sequence, or genetic makeup of an organism due to mistakes when the DNA is copied or environmental factors such as UV light and smoke etc.

how would you check that the destarching had been effective
Answer:
Test a leaf or two for the presence of starch in order to determine whether the plant is completely destarched. If a positive result is obtained - leaves turn blue-black, the plant should be left under in the cupboard or under the coverd bell jar for longer, until a negative result- no colour change - is obtained.
if all cells in an organism have the same DNA, the same genes why are there so many different types of cells in the human body for example there are nerve cells and skin cells and muscle cells
Answer:
The cell (from Latin cella, meaning "small room"[1]) is the basic structural, functional, and biological unit of all known organisms. Cells are the smallest units of life, and hence are often referred to as the "building blocks of life". The study of cells is called cell biology, cellular biology, or cytology.Cells consist of cytoplasm enclosed within a membrane, which contains many biomolecules such as proteins and nucleic acids.[2] Most plant and animal cells are only visible under a light microscope, with dimensions between 1 and 100 micrometres.[3] Electron microscopy gives a much higher resolution showing greatly detailed cell structure. Organisms can be classified as unicellular (consisting of a single cell such as bacteria) or multicellular (including plants and animals).[4] Most unicellular organisms are classed as microorganisms.
The number of cells in plants and animals varies from species to species; it has been estimated that humans contain somewhere around 40 trillion (4×1013) cells.[a][5] The human brain accounts for around 80 billion of these cells.[6]
Cells were discovered by Robert Hooke in 1665, who named them for their resemblance to cells inhabited by Christian monks in a monastery.[7][8] Cell theory, first developed in 1839 by Matthias Jakob Schleiden and Theodor Schwann, states that all organisms are composed of one or more cells, that cells are the fundamental unit of structure and function in all living organisms, and that all cells come from pre-existing cells.[9] Cells emerged on Earth at least 3.5 billion years ago.[10][11][12]
Can y’all answer quick and correctly I’m ina bad mood rn
Answer: capillaries
Explanation:
Answer:
Capillaries
Explanation: Fluid is forced out of capillaries (filtration) by blood pressure (hydrostatic pressure). As plasma is filtered, globular proteins are concentrated in the blood passing through the glomerulus, as globular proteins are too large to be filtered.
