Absolute dating is used to determine a precise age of a rock or fossil through radiometric dating methods. This uses radioactive minerals that occur in rocks andfossils almost like a geological clock. It's often much easier to date volcanic rocks than the fossils themselves or the sedimentary rocks they are found in.

Explain how a mutation in a bacterial cell could help it become resistant to infection by a bacteriophage
zhenek [66]

Bacteria have different phage resistance mechanisms, such as spontaneous mutations, the CRISPR-Cas system.

Spontaneous mutations are the main mechanisms leading to phage resistance by altering the structure of bacterial wall components that act as phage receptors. These include lipopolysaccharides (LPS), outer membrane proteins, cell wall teichoic acids, capsules, and other bacterial components.
