7、 happened is to discover when it happened Radiocarbon dating was developed in the late 1940sby physicist Willard F. Libby at the University of Chicago An atom of ordinary carbon， calledcarbon-12，has six protons (質(zhì)子 ) and six neutrons (中子 ) in its nucleus. Carbon-14，or C-14is aradioaclive unstable fo

8、rm of carbon that has two extra neutrons(原子核) it returns to a more stablefrom of carbon through a process called decay( neutrons and energy from the nucleus衰減 )This process involves the loss of the extra資料僅供參考In Libby s radiocarbon dating technique，the weak radioactive emissions(放射 ) from this decay

9、process ere counted by instruments such as a radiation detector and counter the decay rate isused to determine the proportion of C-14 atoms in the sample being dated.Carbon-14is produced in the Earth s atmosphere when nitrogen( 氮 )-14,or N-14, interacts withcosmic rays(宇宙射線 ). Scientists believe sin

10、ce the Earth was formed the amount of nitrogen inthe atmosphere has remained constant. Consequently C-14 formation is thought to occur at a constant rate. Now the ratio of C-14 to other carbon atoms in the atmosphere is known. Most scientists agree that this radio is useful for dating items back to

11、at least 50.000 years.All life on Earth is made of organic molecules(分子 )that contain carbon atoms coming from theatmosphere . So aIl living things have about the same ratio of C-14 atoms to other carbon atomsin their tissues( 組織 ). Once an organism(有機體 )dies it stops taking in carbon in any form，an

12、d theC-14 already present begins to decay Over time the amount of C-14 in the material decreases，and the ratio of C-14 to other carbon atoms goes down. In terms of radio carbon dating，the fewerC-14 atoms in a sample the older that sample is16Nowadays many scientists depend 013 radiocarbon for dating

Chimpanzees are sosimilar to humans that vetednarians(獸醫(yī) )often refer to human medical textbooks when treatingthem. Yet chimpanzees do show differences in

19、several key areas. In particular, chimps are muchmore resistant to a number of major diseases It is this ability that is so interesting.4 For example ， chimps seem to show a much higher resistance than humans to HIV, the viresthat causes AIDS. Indeed， their use as experimental animals in AIDS resear

20、ch has declinedbecause they are so resistant.5 By sequencing the chimp genome and pinpointing( 找到 ) the place where the chimpanzee DNA sequence differs from that of humans, scientists hope to be able to discover which part of thegenetic code gives chimps their increased resistance to some diseases.

21、This ， they hope allow them to develop new and more effective treatments for the human forms of these diseases.，willSuch treatments could include the production of new drugs or even the alteration(human genetic sequence.
