Internal Examination of a Newly Hatched Alligator. A professional can determine the gender of a very small baby alligator, 6 to 10 inches long. One method is to place the creature on its back and hold open his vent with round-tipped tweezers or forceps, with a helper's assistance.
Technetium is the only element below uranium that does not exist on Earth. It is a synthetic (man-made) element produced in a particle accelerator. For many years, chemists knew that an element with atomic number 43 must exist, based on an empty spot in the periodic table.
Production of Technetium-99m. Technetium-99m is a nuclear isomer of technetium-99. It is known as the most commonly used medical radioisotope because of its use in tens of millions of medical procedures annually.Technetium-99m is produced by bombarding Molybdenum (98Mo) with neutrons.Molybdenum-99 is then produced. This then undergoes a Beta decay with a half life of 66 hours to produce Technetium.The production of Technetium-99m is then able to be permitted for medical purposes.olybdenum-99 is then produced.
