Question

Because the animal food chain ultimately relies on the sugars and organic compounds produced by plants, the ratio of 12CO2 to 14CO2 incorporated into animal tissues (e.g., bone) and organs should also be the same as that present in the atmosphere.A. TrueB. False

Answer 1

A. True

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of
`12CO_(2)` to
`14CO_(2)` incorporated into animal tissue should be the same bacause the amount absorbed by animal tissues must be at constant rate from the sources. This can be used to obtain information regarding years of birth and death of the animal.
