Carbon-14 is a radioactive isotope of carbon that has a half-life of about 5,730 years. You have discovered a fossil and want to know how old the fossil is. You count
the parent and daughter atoms and calculate that you have about 6.25% of the
parent atom (carbon-14) left. How old is the fossil? (Provide units (years) for your
final answer. You must show your work.

22,920 years

Explanation:

When the fossil first started to decay, it must have had 100% of its parent carbon-14 atoms. Every 5,730 years, that amount gets cut in half. Let's travel back a ways, to the very beginning, 0 years into the decay. We'll keep track of the time elapsed, the number of half-lifes, and the percent of carbon-14 remaining:

That last one represents our situation, so the fossil is 22,920 years old.

answer:

sequence 1- deletion

                  2- duplication

                  3- insertion

                  4- substitute

                  5- inversion

some of your causes might be acidic rain or natural wildfires that cause the parks to be degraded

hope this any more questions i am here plz mark brainliest
