Once the organism dies the amount of carbon-14 decreases exponentially.
The exponential, radioactive decay of carbon 14 is used to estimate the death dates of organic material.
Living organisms have approximately the same ratio of C12 to C14 in their tissues. Once the organism dies C14 decays into nitrogen 14. Decay of C14 to nitrogen 14 changes the ratio of C12 to C14. The ratio of C12 to C14 in dead material can be compared to the ratio when the organism was alive to estimate the date of its death. Radiocarbon dating can be used on different samples such as bone, cloth, wood and plant fibers.
Answer:
During the Devonian period which occurs 375 million years ago, gills are present in the fossil of tetrapods.
Explanation:
Gills present in tetrapods which able the marine animals to breathe inside water but with the passage of time the sac which is present around the gills convert into lungs and these tetrapods are able to live on the land. Examples of tetrapods are frog, lion, birds and salamander etc.
Answer:
Explanation:
This group is made up bacteria that utilizes of citrate and are slow lactose-fermenting. They belong to the family Enterobacteriaceae which share some particular feature with the lactose-fermenting citrobacters.
Thus, they have now been included in the genus Citrobacter with no regards to how fast or slower their lactose fermentation is.

Explanation:Imagine you have data on the jaw structure of hundreds of species, and information about what each species ate. How could you use this information to figure out what the new species eats?
Hi, The center image is a decomposer because it decomposes the dead organisms. The grass is a producer since it produces its own energy through photosynthesis. The rest are consumers because they consume other organisms to get energy. Hope that helped!
