The right answer is C. The rates of decay of radioactive elements.

The dating methods make it possible to locate an object in time, fossil remains, and to estimate a date as accurate as possible. If Carbon 14 is the method that comes to mind instantly, this is just one method among others. Depending on the object to date, the context of its discovery, the material and the quantity that can be taken, several techniques can be deployed.

Each method of dating is generally dedicated to the study of a type of materials, for example, timber for dendrochronology, organic remains (wood, bone) for the C14 method or lava for the Potassium-Argon method. Some methods are too destructive and/or too expensive, so it may sometimes be preferable to date the sediments surrounding an artifact rather than the object itself.

What is the most important property of water for protecting fish in a shallow pond on a hot summer day
noname [10]
Answer:  Low oxygen content.

Explanation:
There are many dangers to the survival of fish in shallow water that depend on the properties of water.
1. The oxygen content drops during the winter and also in hot weather. Fish cannot survive without enough oxygen in the water.
2. High evaporation rates can drain the pond.
3. Fortunately, water has a high thermal mass, so overheating the water to the boiling point is not an issue.

Of the three reasons given, lack of oxygen is the most critical.
