The correct term is histological section.

<h3>What are histological sections?</h3>

Thus, histological sectioning is an act of cutting very thin slices of tissues for the purpose of mounting such on microscope slides. To enhance views and differentiate different parts of cells, sections of tissues are often stained.

Answer: Potassium-40 decays into argon gas over time.

Explanation: Potassium-argon dating is a dating method used to determine the age of sedimentary rocks by comparing the proportion of K-40 to Ar-40 in a sample of rock, and knowing the decay rate of K-40.

Potassium-40 undergoes decay following first order kinetics as given below:

$_{19}^{40}\textrm{K}\rightarrow _{18}^{40}\textrm{Ar}+_{0}^1e$
