What fossils are useful in determining the relative age of rocks?
Index fossils
Which statement explains how determining the age of the remains of living things is similar to dating rocks?
Organisms and rocks both contain stable and unstable elements.
How can the principles of stratigraphy be used to do relative age dating?
Geologists generally know the age of a rock by determining the age of the group of rocks, or formation, that it is found in. The age of formations is marked on a geologic calendar known as the geologic time scale. Development of the geologic time scale and dating of formations and rocks relies upon two fundamentally different ways of telling time: relative and absolute.
