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.
the most 0a in the world has a equivalent od dating :P
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
They both help you understand fossils
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.
information is providedv by absolute that cannot be provided by relative 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 . . .)
The two methods are "RELATIVE DATING" and "ABSOLUTE DATING". :)
both have methods of descovering the age of an object or event.
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.
No. Radioactive dating is an absolute dating tool.
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.
