It is quicker and can be done in the field for a quick age referencing of a rock sample.
Radioactive isotopes decay at a constant rate
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.

Yes, stratigraphy is a method to determine the relative age of rock strata. Stratigraphy is a branch of geology which studies rock layers.
The geology of the Moon and the rock planets like Mars.

They are both methods of discovering the age of an object.They both are methods used in archaeology and geology.
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.
Absolute age dating defines an exact date -1875. Relative dating gives a relative answer -10 years after the end of the civil war. Your welcome for helping you with Biology Homework.... *Cheaters* Geology homework. Actually. -.- Jeesh, people these days.
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.
In terms of geology, Relative Age is the age of an object in relation to the ages of other objects. Layers of rock, called strata, show the order of events that took place in the past and Absolute Age is the numerical age of an object or event.

The general term is Dating. In archaeology and geology, the process of determining the approximate numerical age of something is called Absolute Dating. The process of determining the age of something relative to another thing (if it's older or younger) is called Relative Dating.
