In an agricultural experiment, a solution containing 1 mole of a radioactive material ( T1/2=14.3T_{1/2} = 14.3 days) was injected into the roots of a plant. The plant was allowed 70 h to settle down and then activity was measured in its fruit. If the activity measured was 1 μCi\mu\text{Ci} , what percentage of activity is transmitted from the root to the fruit in steady state?
