Answer:

option D is incorrect

Explanation:

the sedimentation coefficient is measured in Svedberg units named after the scientist Theodore Svedberg. the shape of the particle being measured in the ultracentrifuge is one of the factors that determines the sedimentation coefficient. the values are usually not additive as the sedimentation coefficient is based on the rate at which a particle sediments in an ultracentrifuge and not on the size. for example, the sedimentation coefficient of eukaryotic ribosome is 80S but is made up of the 60S large subunit and the 40S small subunit.

Fossils up to 75,000 years old can be dated with ______.
kodGreya [7K]
Fossils up to 75,000 years old can be dated with Carbon-14.
 
Radio isotopes can be used for the age determination of the fossils. Carbon-14 is a common isotope which is used for that purpose. But the half- life of the Carbon-14 is relatively small as 5730 years. That means the amount of Carbon-14 will be half after every 5730 years. Hence, decay is very fast. So Carbon-14 cannot be used forage determination which is more than 75000 years due to the low accuracy.
