What are 3 examples that apply to both relative dating and absolute dating?
Relative dating and absolute dating are both used as terms in geology. These are both considered as methods to determine the age of an object. Also both are terms used in archaeology.
What is relative and absolute age?
Absolute- Actual Age of a rock Relative- The age of something compared to other things Relative age does not tell how old something is but tells us in what order events have happened relative- the age of a rock or fossil compared to the surrounding rocks and fossil
Why would a scientist use both relative and absolute dating?
They both help you understand fossils
Is relative dating the most accurate process by which geologists determine the age of a rock?
No. Absolute dating is the most precise method for dating rock. Absolute dating relies on the known rate of decay of radioactive elements present in the rock to arrive at a fairly precise age.
What is a similarity to relative and absolute dating?
They are both methods of discovering the age of an object.They both are methods used in archaeology and geology.
What information is providedv by absolute that cannot be provided by relative dating?
information is providedv by absolute that cannot be provided by relative dating?
What information is provided by absolute that cannot be provided by relative dating?
information is providedv by absolute that cannot be provided by relative dating?
What are two ways geologists determine the age of fossils?
The two methods are "RELATIVE DATING" and "ABSOLUTE DATING". :)
How does relative dating and absolute dating help scientists assemble a fossil record for an area?
Relative dating is the science determining the relative order of past events, without necessarily determining their absolute age Absolute dating is the process of determining an approximate computed age in archaeology and geology.
Does radioactive dating tell the relative age of rocks?
No. Radioactive dating is an absolute dating tool.
What are two of determining a fossils age?
The two methods are "RELATIVE DATING" and "ABSOLUTE DATING". :)

What is the different between relative andv absolute dating?
Relative dating says that something happened a certain amount of years after something else happened. Or before. Absolute dating says that something happened in a certain year. (Month, day . . .)
What advantages of absolute dating?
You can meet new people and ya that's about it :/
What is relative and absolute age?
Absolute- Actual Age of a rock Relative- The age of something compared to other things Relative age does not tell how old something is but tells us in what order events have happened relative- the age of a rock or fossil compared to the surrounding rocks and fossil
What would be the two methods of dating fossils and explain each?
relative and absolute. relative is determining the relative order of past events, without necessarily determining their absolute age. Absolute is the process of determining an approximate computed age in archaeology and geology.
True or False Fossils may be dated by either the relative dating method which determines the relative order of fossils or by the absolute dating method which uses radioactive isotopes?
True
