Answer:
D) the steady, clocklike decay of certain radioactive isotopes over time.
Explanation:
Geologists use radiometric dating to estimate how long ago rocks formed, and to infer the ages of fossils contained within those rocks.
For example, when rocks are formed, such as igneous rocks (formed when molten rocks cools), certain radioactive atoms are trapped inside the rocks during this formation process. Then these radioactive atoms decay over time.
The age of the rock can be estimated by comparing the occurring radioactive isotope within the material to the abundance of its decay products, which form at a known constant rate of decay.
From the options;
A) this is about the formation of the radioactive molecules and not about radiometric dating
B) this is radiocarbon dating (cabon dating/carbon-14 dating)
C) the <em>assumption </em>is wrong since the radioactive isotopes decays not accumulate.
D) the corect option as I explained earlier.
Sustainable use practices are practices that are used in the use of resources for example that seek to maintain the longevity and continuance of the potential use of that resource. In regards to trees and logging the sustainable use of wood or paper would seek to continue the longevity and vitality of the forests by not overusing these products. Sustainable use will use a resource at a rate that will allow for natural replenishment or incremental use of the resource to prevent harm to the environment and allow the resource to be used far into the future.
The correct answer among all the other choices is B. The government has banned further development of the region. This statement about the Amazon River basin is not accurate. Thank you for posting your question. I hope that this answer helped you. Let me know if you need more help.
That would be B cytokinesis...best way to remember that is both have the root word cyto in them
