Answer:
By measuring the quantity of unstable atoms left in a fossil and comparing it to the quantity of stable daughter atoms in the fossil , scientists can estimate the amount of time that has passed since that fossil formed.
hope this helps !
Answer: B - help map the ocean floor
Explanation: GPS which is an acronym for Global Positioning System is a global satellite based location and navigation system owned by the US Government. It was first used by the US Air Force in 1978. It's main purpose is to show a GPS user location and time information from anywhere on earth, where there is an unobstructed line of sight from the precise location to 4 or more GPS satellites. GPS is commonly used on land (obviously through every day use like when you use an uber) and in the air (pilots use GPS signals when they fly).
GPS can be used to track pets if there's a tracking device on their collars.
GPS is also used in taxis and can be used to track a cab after a hurricane.
Ordinary people can use GPS to collect information for scientists - an example of this would be taking a new undefined route on Google maps therefore adding to their archive of known routes/areas.
However GPS signals cannot penetrate water - sea water especially. Hence the answer is B

Answer:
Option (1)
Explanation:
Sedimentary rocks are usually defined as those rocks where the sediments are deposited, thereby undergone compaction and lithification. These rocks are comprised of fossils at different places. It is because they are soft sediments and the fossilized materials are preserved in it.
The sediments or the broken rock fragments are formed due to the combination of weathering and erosion process, and these sediments are then transported to some other places by the agents such as wind, water, and ice.
After these sediments are deposited in a new place they are subjected to compaction and often minerals are embedded on it, and after solidification, gives rise to the formation of sedimentary rocks.
Thus, the correct answer is option (1).
