<span>Absolute dating tells you exactly when an event usually geological occurred and it can be done by carbon 14 dating for present to about 40,000 yrs ago and before that in rocks it can go back at least 200 million years. It helps to determine the age relationships between geological events like sedimentation and intrusion and orebody ages and also the age of fossils. </span>

The correct answer is - when an event occurred in years.

The absolute dating tells us exactly when something happened in years. By using the carbon 14 technique it can be very accurate to about 40,000 years ago, and also by studying the rocks, it can be accurate to an incredible 200 million years backwards. This is of great importance for the fields of geology and paleontology, as well as all the sciences that use the information's from them for their own studies. This method allows the scientists to be able to put things into the right order as to when they happened in the geological history, thus creating a very accurate picture of the order of the events that took place in the past of our planet.

Which statement contrasts viruses and bacteria?
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

Viruses can replicate inside cells, while bacteria release toxins to destroy cells.

Explanation:

Viruses and bacteria are both considered microorganisms that can be pathogens. Bacteria are singled celled organisms, where as viruses are non-cellular. Therefore, viruses are sometimes considered non-living, or "on the edge of life"

Viruses consist of (at the minimum) a genome surrounded by a protein coat. To replicate, they have to insert their genome into a host cell. This is another reason they are sometimes considered non living.

In contrast, bacteria can release toxins but do not replicate inside cells.

Therefore, the answer is viruses can replicate inside cells, while bacteria release toxins to destroy cells.

Explain how scientists use geological time to determine the age of landforms.
Vika [28.1K]
To determine the relative age of different rocks, geologists start with the assumption that unless something has happened, in a sequence of sedimentary rock layers, the newer rock layers will be on top of older ones. This is called the Rule of Superposition. ... With absolute age dating, you get a real age in actual years
