Answer:
The age of a rock compared to the ages of the rock layers.
fossils can be used to determine the relative age of rock layer by using the classification of fossils to find the relative ages of rocks in which fossils are found. :] hoped i helped you out.

index fossils
Those types of fossils are called index fossils.
One example of relative dating is studying the layers of rock in a particular area. By analyzing the sequence of rock layers and the fossils within them, scientists can determine the relative ages of the rocks and the fossils they contain.
True
by comparing its placement with that of fossils in other layers of rock
Relative dating by index fossils.
An index fossil. An index fossil's age is known, allowing scientists to know the relative age of other fossils based on their position relative to the index fossil. (Ex. If a fossil is deeper in the earth, it is older than the index fossil)
nunya
it provides how old the fossils are. it tells the paleontologists about how long ago those fossils were set in the ground.
