The correct answer is 3) the amount of parent and daughter material trapped in the rock.

Potassium–argon dating (K–Ar dating), is a method which is used in archaeology and it is based on measurement of the product of the radioactive decay of an isotope of potassium (K) into argon (Ar). The decay product Ar is able to escape the liquid rock. But, when the rock solidifies (recrystallizes) Ar starts to accumulate. To calculate time since recrystallization you must measure  

the ratio of the amount of Ar accumulated to the amount of K that remained.

Answer:

Nutrients, for example, (sugars and starch) and proteins can be recognized by the use of an indicator, which is a synthetic that delivers a trademark shading when a specific substance is available. Lipids can be distinguished by their capacity to make paper clear. In this lab, you will test nourishment for different Nutrients, and contrast your tests with principles, which are the aftereffects of tests that show a positive reaction for a known substance.

Explanation:

Substances or mixes that supply your body with energy and the structure squares of full scale particles are called supplements. The food you eat contains nourishment essential to your body. Sugars and starches make up a gathering of natural mixes called Starches, which are significant in providing your body with energy. A few starches furnish your body with inedible fiber, or roughage, which helps processing. Natural mixes called proteins are significant for development and fix. Lipids are natural mixes that can supply as much as multiple times the measure of energy as starches or proteins.
