Answer:
c. are too old (predate sedimentary deposition)
Explanation:
Radiometric dates calculated from minerals in sedimentary rocks produce ages that are too old and often predates the sedimentary deposition.
Radiometric dating involves the uses of radioactive elements in rocks to measure the absolute age of rock.
It involves comparing the daughter to parent ratio because the decay started when the minerals formed in a rock in a period of crystallization or metamorphic event.
- Sedimentary rocks are often made up of re-worked minerals.
- They are derived from pre-existing igneous and metamorphic rocks.
- When radioactive minerals from these sources finds their way into sediments, they give the age of their parent rock and not that of the sedimentary rock because their activity is not being reset.
The Answer is: A Cenozoic
I just did it and it’s correct!!
Tides are caused by the specific alignment of the Moon, Earth, and Sun.
When aligned a certain way the the gravitational pulls basically share and add on to each other creating tidal waves.
An example of a certain alignment would be spring tides, which happen during a New or Full moon.
Examples: Boat sailors must watch out for tides and make sure to plan their sailing journeys according to the tide. They don't want to be caught against a tide, especially small board sailors.
Also fisherman keep note of tides since some sea life rely on tides for survival and feeding or some fish simply follow the movement of the tides. Fisherman use tides as an indication of when it'd be best to go fishing.
No. Canada is a part of North America. Therefore, that question is no. Something that is a part of something bigger, cannot be bigger than the thing itself.
I hope this helps you! Thank you for the points.
