The isotope known as carbon-14 is radioactive and will decay into the stable form nitrogen-14. as long as an organism is alive, it ingests air, and the level of carbon-14 in the organism remains the same. when it dies, it no longer absorbs carbon-14 from the air, and the carbon-14 in the organism decays. the half-life of carbon-14 is 5770 years. assume an organic sample is 14,000 years old. how many half-lives is 14,000 years?
