Answer:Radiometric dating allows us to indirectly date fossils up to billions of years old based on minerals in surrounding volcanic strata. The correct option is D.

Explanation:

Radiometric dating was first used by geologist after being published by Bertram Bollywood in 1907. During volcanic eruption, some minerals ( carbon) are trapped within the volcanic strata. These minerals are made up of radioactive isotopes which are unstable as they form decay products with a known constant rate of decay. This enables them to :

- access information about the absolute age of rocks,

- date a wide range of natural and man-made materials

- know even the age of earth. I hope this helps. Thanks

Answer: Option D.

Radiometric dating allows to indirectly date up to billions of years old based on minerals in surrounding volcanic strata.

Explanation:

Radiometric dating is a way of measuring decay radioactive elements to determine the age of rocks or earth materials or organic origin based objects. It is an accurate way to know the age of earth or rocks because it is done based on radioactive decay of unstable isotopes. This was first used during volcanic eruptions when carbon was present in the volcanic strata.
