Radioactive dating can determine the age of minerals and fossils in each layer of rock.

Explanation:

Radioactive dating is the most commonly used geological method to determine the age of rocks and fossils layered in the layers of rock on the basis of their natural radioactive decaying.

With the help of the known rate of radioactive decay of isotopes, different types of radiometric dating are done depending upon the material found in the rock layers, like uranium-lead dating or potassium-argon dating.

Radiocarbon dating helps to record organic content in rocks like bones, shells, etc. Age of fossils sediment over sedimentary rocks is determined by combining with the bracketing method.
