Its use in Nature by Nature is not known. The atom decays with a half life of something like 14,000 years and is present in all carbon in the earth at a certain percentage. Thus a gram of any organic substance (an organic substance is one that possess carbon and oxygen; carbon is present in food (polysaccharides, fats, sugars, proteins; and in all tissues of the body and it is present at the % that it is present on earth thruout life. When an animal or plant dies, it stops taking in C14 or any carbon when it dies. As time goes on, the % of Carbon in the dead plant of animal that is C14 decreases as C14 decays by ejection of an electron (beta decay). As this happens, the 5 of total carbon that is radioactive decreases continuously, Scientists can determine how long ago the animal died by determining how much C14 radioactivity is in a gram of that organisms carbon. If the organism died 14,000 years ago, the % would be about half of that in the earths environment (then and now, that doesn't change). Aside from its use for that calculation, C14 has no known "use" but is a product of natural radioactive decay and plays a central role in universal homeostasis.

The half-life of C14 is 5730 years. What fraction of the original C14 would you expect to be present in a fossil that is 28650 years old?
There would be 1/32 left.
What is the difference between c 12 and c 14?
C12 and C14 are isotopes of the Element Carbon. C12 is the most abundant of all which is 99% of all the Carbon on earth while C14 is only 0.0000000001% (trace amount). C12 has a Atomic Number of 12. It has 6 Protons and 6 Neutrons. C14 has a Atomic Number of 14. It has 6 Protons and 8 Neutrons. C14 is radioactive in nature. It is used for carbon dating.
What are C12 C13 and C14 considered?
C12, C13, and C14 are isotopes of carbon, differing in the number of neutrons in their atomic nuclei. C12, the most abundant isotope, has 6 neutrons, while C13 has 7 neutrons, and C14, a radioactive isotope, has 8 neutrons. These isotopes are significant in various fields, including geology, archaeology (carbon dating with C14), and environmental science, as they help in understanding carbon cycling and dating ancient organic materials.
What type of cell reference is C14?
It is a relative cell reference.
What is the daughter product of the nuclear decay equation of C14?
N14
What actors and actresses appeared in C14 - 2013?
The cast of C14 - 2013 includes: Dustin Bacon as Random Guy Craig Bouwens as Zombie 2 David Scott Diaz as David
What fraction of the original c14 would you expect to be present in a fossil that is twenty eight thousand six hundred and fifty years old?
The half-life of C14 is 5730 years so the given period is 5 half-lives. You should, therefore, expect approx 2-5 = 0.03125 of the original C14 to remain.
How many isotopes dose c have?
3 - c12, c13 and c14
