Answer:Radiometric dating allows us to indirectly date fossils up to billions of years old based on minerals in surrounding volcanic strata. The correct option is D.
Explanation:
Radiometric dating was first used by geologist after being published by Bertram Bollywood in 1907. During volcanic eruption, some minerals ( carbon) are trapped within the volcanic strata. These minerals are made up of radioactive isotopes which are unstable as they form decay products with a known constant rate of decay. This enables them to :
- access information about the absolute age of rocks,
- date a wide range of natural and man-made materials
- know even the age of earth. I hope this helps. Thanks
While doing exercise, one can control skeletal muscles only.
The body has three kinds of muscles, that is, skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle, and smooth muscle. The skeletal muscles are linked with the bones of the skeleton, that is why these are under control and are known as voluntary muscles.
On the other hand, the smooth muscles like skeletal muscle can never be under control. These muscles helps in pushing substances, like blood or food through organs. The cardiac muscle is also an involuntary muscle, which is found only in the heart. These muscles helps in contraction of the heart and can never be controlled.
Mass is measured by using a balance comparing a known amount of matter to an unknown amount of matter. Weight is measured on a scale.
The pit that marks the location of the umbilical cord after birth is known as the navel or belly button. All animals that grow placenta during fetal development will have a navel or belly button. The scientific name of the structure is the umbillicus. It can be a depression in some individuals or raised in others.
