From the provided options, the conclusion made by James regarding the lack of carbon 14 could be the use of relative dating in estimating the age of fossils.

The third option is the correct answer.

<h3>What are fossils?</h3>

Fossils are the remains of the dead organisms that are preserved for so many years in a museum.

According to the situation, James analyses that the fossils don't have any content of carbon 14 at the time of estimating the absolute age of that fossil of an animal. This happens may be due to the decay of that fossil over the years.

<u>Question's missing part:</u>

Following are the options in relation to the question:

1) Without carbon-14, it will be an impossible task to estimate the age of the fossil.

2) Finding another fossil nearby without carbon-14 will guarantee that he has matching fossils.

3) Without carbon-14, James can use relative dating to estimate the age of the fossil.

4) The animal's carbon-14 decayed long before the animal died.

5) The animal, whether living or dead, never had carbon-14 in its system.

Therefore, James can use the relative dating process in order to identify the age of an animal fossil.
