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
Well, it depends but adults can weigh up to 420,000 pounds
Answer: As matter cycles and energy flows through living systems and between living systems and the physical environment, matter and energy are conserved in each change. The carbon cycle provides an example of matter cycling and energy flow in ecosystems.
