Answer:

Sedimentary rocks

Explanation:

  Sediments and chemical sedimentary rocks are classified according to chemical composition and can be:

    Carbonatics: formed by the accumulation of carbonate minerals (limestone and dolomites) - the most common on Earth. Can be generated by reefs, inorganic reactions or even of mixed origin.

    Evaporites: formed by the precipitation of salts in the evaporation of seawater and lakes in closed arid regions. The Marine evaporites are common in regions where the freshwater supply is small, the sea is closed and the climate is arid.

    There are also silica rocks (chert / precipitated silica - flint), phosphorites and ferruginous rocks. As well as oil basins, coal and natural gas, formed by the action of high temperatures and pressures on organic waste.

In what type of rock is the ratio of unstable isotopes to stable isotopes best measured?
Nana76 [90]

Answer: Igneous Rock

Explanation: Radiometric dating is used to date rocks by measuring the decay of their composite materials. Stable isotopes remain the same over   time while the nucleus of an unstable or radioactive isotope will decay to form other isotopes .

Dating rocks using Isotopic methods uses the decay time of the isotope in the rock to assess its age. The accuracy of this method is assured by the fact that when these isotopes decay, they are retained in the rock. Isotopic dating is not very accurate in sedimentary rocks because they contain particles from older rocks.

olga nikolaevna [1]

Areas are the geographic object of a geographic information system (gis) that is most likely used to show a particular zip code or a large tourist attraction.

A Geographic information system (GIS) is a laptop device that analyzes and presentations geographically referenced facts. It uses information that is attached to a completely unique location.

A geographic information system is a type of database containing geographic data, blended with software program tools for handling, reading, and visualizing those records.

An example of this kind of information is pc information amassed by satellites that show land use the place of farms, towns, and forests. remote sensing provides every other device that may be incorporated into a GIS. Far-off sensing consists of imagery and different statistics collected from satellites, balloons, and drones.
