Relative dating is how scientists determine how old a species is by looking at the undisturbed layers of rock. The deeper down the layer is the older the fossil is. (:

What are two ways geologists determine the age of fossils?
The two methods are "RELATIVE DATING" and "ABSOLUTE DATING". :)
The process that places geologic events in proper time sequence is referred to as?
relative dating
Do geologists use the relative dating method on earth?
Yes, Geologists use the relative dating metod on earth.

Relative dating of artifacts?
Relative dating of artifacts involves determining the age of an artifact in relation to other artifacts or features found in the same archaeological context. This can be done through stratigraphy (analyzing the layers in which artifacts are found) or seriation (ordering artifacts based on stylistic changes over time). By establishing the sequence in which artifacts were deposited, archaeologists can infer relative ages without needing to use numerical dates.
Does radioactive dating tell the relative age of rocks?
No. Radioactive dating is an absolute dating tool.
What is relitave dating?
relative dating is when you give an estimate date.
What is the limitation of relative dating-?
limitation of relative dating is simply your personal limit to how much pussie or dick you can take. ;D
How is relative dating more accurate?
Relative dating is not more accurate than absolute dating. Relative dating will, if done properly, give you an order sequence in time but it will not return any information about when something happened unless there is other information that can be used to establish a time frame.
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.
