The correct answer is - B. Large sandstone formation in the barren outback of Central Australia.
The Ayers Rock, or Uluru in the native language, is a large sandstone formation in the barren outback in the central part of Australia. This rock is actually one of the trademark natural features of Australia and it is a big tourist attraction, but also a sacred place for the indigenous people of the tribe Pitjantjatjara Anangu. The rock has lot of ancient paintings on it, as well as nice surroundings with lot of springs, waterholes, and rock caves. The Ayers Rock/Uluru is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and this natural feature is in a national park.
Answer:
D) the steady, clocklike decay of certain radioactive isotopes over time.
Explanation:
Geologists use radiometric dating to estimate how long ago rocks formed, and to infer the ages of fossils contained within those rocks.
For example, when rocks are formed, such as igneous rocks (formed when molten rocks cools), certain radioactive atoms are trapped inside the rocks during this formation process. Then these radioactive atoms decay over time.
The age of the rock can be estimated by comparing the occurring radioactive isotope within the material to the abundance of its decay products, which form at a known constant rate of decay.
From the options;
A) this is about the formation of the radioactive molecules and not about radiometric dating
B) this is radiocarbon dating (cabon dating/carbon-14 dating)
C) the <em>assumption </em>is wrong since the radioactive isotopes decays not accumulate.
D) the corect option as I explained earlier.
It was a quarter of billion years ago and the world nearly came to an end. there was dinosaurs and the greens that they used to eat and today a dino's head is sculptured on a high cliff.
India experiences varied climates ranging from tropical in the south to temperate and alpine in the Himalayan north. Snowfall is received by elevated areas during winters. India has Tropical monsoon type of climate. These varied climates occur due to vast area and latitudinal differences
