Explanation:
The discoveries indicates that the rocks were formed over millions of years ago due to the age of fossils they contain.
Fossils are the preserved remains of life found in rocks. Most fossils are used in relative dating of rocks.
- Dinosaurs are extinct organisms that once lived in the Mesozoic. This was about 100 million years ago.
- Tool man also grazed the surface of the earth just a few thousands to a million years.
- We are able to find their fossils in rocks because they have lived in some certain geologic periods.
- Here we are using the fossils to date the rock and this is called relative dating

Answer:
Argon
Explanation:
Argon is actually used to determine the age. It's called potassium-argon dating b/c when volcano erupts the rocks in it contain potassium. The potassium slowly decays and produces argon. Scientists measure how much argon is in a given volcanic rock and do math backwards to figure out how many potassium atoms were needed to produce the given amount of argon. We already know the rate at which potassium decays so then they put two and two together to find the age.

The answer is "A hypothesis is tentative statement" and "A theory has a strong predictive power."
First of all, the cohesive and adhesive properties of the water molecules fascilitate this. Water molecules stick together and with the walls of the vessels, creating a column of water which doesn t break easily. Moreover the xylem vessels of the tree are very narrow increasing the pressure. Finally, transpiration is taking place as water from the leaves evaporate, thus a continuous osmotic gradient is being created, causing water to be drawn up the tree
Cells become haploid in cytokinesis of meiosis one because the chromosomes have divided.
