<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

amount of decayed daughter elements

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Absolute age is the age of a rock in years. Absolute age is found by measuring the amount of certain radioactive elements in the rock.</u></em>
  • During the formation of rock, small amounts of radioactive elements is normally included. As the time passes, the parent radioactive elements undergo decay at a regular rate into non-radioactive daughter elements.
  • <u><em>By measuring the rate at which a parent element decays and then the ratio of parent element to daughter element in the rock the age of rock in years can be found.</em></u>
