The isotope of carbon is used to date the ancient fossils. Since every living creature had organic matter and carbon is an integral part of that organic matter, it is conventional to use carbon isotope.
Yes you can. You can still research the carbon even though the fossil is frozen.
Carbon 14 dating is one tpye of radiometric dating. It is used for destermiing the age of samples of one-living entities. See related links for more information.
it is used as an isotope and it can be used for good or super villain purposes.
It is not possible to carbon date rocks. Carbon 14 dating is based on the absorption of atmospheric carbon by livingthings. When the thing dies it no longer takes in carbon from the atmosphere through processes such as eating or respiration and levels of C14 in the body deplete due to the natural process of radioactive decay. By seeing how much C14 remains it is possible to see how long it has been since that animal died.However there are a range of other dating methods which can be used.

Used in carbon dating that is to find the age of fossils.

No. radio carbon dating is only efficient for the fossils of plants or animals. As pottery is an abiotic substance its age cannot be determined by carbon dating

Relative Dating, its where the paleontologists date the fossils according to the layer of soil that the fossil was found compared to other fossils that were carbon dated that were in the same soil layer.
Among many methods, carbon dating is most commonly used to date fossils. In carbon dating, scientists look at how much carbon is left in the fossil, look at the half-life period, and use that to see when it was from.

Since carbon is contained in organic substances, and after the death of an organic substance, (living thing) the carbon decreases at a steady rate. So carbon is used for dating fossils or other things.
