A fossil that is found in the rock layers of only one geologic age and that is used to establish the age of the rock layers?
An index fossil.
When you know the relative age of a fossil what else do you know about it?
the relative age of the rock where it was found.
How can the principles of stratigraphy be used to do relative age dating?
Geologists generally know the age of a rock by determining the age of the group of rocks, or formation, that it is found in. The age of formations is marked on a geologic calendar known as the geologic time scale. Development of the geologic time scale and dating of formations and rocks relies upon two fundamentally different ways of telling time: relative and absolute.
How is a trilobite fossil and the age of the rock which it is found an example of how evolutionists use circluar reasing?
If the age of a certain rock strata is found by the use of isotopic methods and another nearby strata is found to contain trilobite fossils, assuming there is no unconformity between the two strata we can infer the approximate age of the trilobites within certain parameters.
How do you see a sedimentary rocks age by looking at the fossils?
Find out what era the Fossil was from and then you can put a relative date on the sedimentary rock, assuming that the fossil was preserved in the sedimentary rock when it had died. It would not be the actual age because you need to date the radioactive isotopes for that.
The actual age of a specific rock group can be found by?
observing any changes in radioactivty. -JACKIELOPARDO
How can you find the actual age of a specific rock group?
using radioactive elements
How can you define the stage of child or What can be the Actual age group?
5-10 I think would be the age group.
What is the relative age of a fossil starfish?

What is a breakage rock?
A Rock Breakage is a rock that breaks when its age is old. They can be found at the Trench where rocks re formed and rocks that are old
Why is the age of a fault younger than the rock in which it is found?
100 year old
Why is the age of the fault younger than the rock in which it is found?
100 year old
What age group is found in grade 6?
just turned 12
