The half-life of a radioisotope is the amount of time it takes for

Answer : It is defined as the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.

Explanation :

Half life : It is defined as the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.

All radioactive decays follow first order kinetics.

The relation between the half-life and rate constant is:

The half-life of the radioactive isotope is remains the same that means a constant value and it is not affected by any external conditions.

B. 3

Explanation:

Mitosis is the process of reproduction of somatic/body cells. This means that the number of chromosomes the original (parent) cell started out with, will remain the same for the daughter cells.

Given that if a parent cell has 3 chromosomes before mitosis, then the 2 daughter cells produced will also have 3 chromosomes after mitosis and cytokinesis.
