CARBON DATING

Carbon dating is based on the ratio of ordinary carbon (12C) and radioactive carbon (14C) or concentration of 14C. Carbon-14 is an unstable form of carbon that decays into nitrogen (14N) at a measured rate-and this forms the basis of carbon-14 dating. During the life...

Zinc and silicon join forces against heat stress

What does zinc do? Zinc is an essential plant nutrient and involved in may physiological processes. During heat stress the membranes of cells are damaged and “poisonous radicals” are formed. Zinc is involved in the detoxification of these radicals like super-oxide...
