Physical environments can change the way we live: we may change our behaviors, habits, or traditions based on our surroundings.
We also choose physical environments that best fit our needs and our culture. If you could choose to live in any type of physical environment, where would you go? Would you choose to live on a beach, on an island, in the desert, or in the forest? In a short paragraph, explain your choice and discuss how this environment might change your life.
I would choose to live on an island, possibly near the tropics. My choice is based on the fact that an island, like for example the archipelago of the Canarias Islands, could offer at the same time different weathers, depending if you going on the beach, or you choose to go up in the mountain. At the base, my decision is based on the fact that the climate is very stable, almost warm forever, and near the sea, it is never too much cold.
I would live in the forest because there are so many advantages to the forest like the animals living on their natural habitat easy hunting and the natural resources surrounding me will last me for years. The forest will affect me for some time by just disgusted on the creepy bugs mostly the biting hungry mosquitoes but overall I think I could last in the forest.

The geologist uses a variety of the methods to date the ricks and these forms the radiometric dating, and the tree rings, and ice cores. And the radiometric technique is one of the most useful methods to date the rocks in terms of establishing their ages and by the use of the carbon C-14, isotope.
<u>Some conditions for the dating include the variations in C ratio in the air, isotopic fractionation, and their contamination. As the carbon has an average; the life of about the 40 years, and is 14 is produced in the upper layers of air and the stratosphere by the interaction of the thermal neutrons and the nitrogen atoms.</u>
