no. 50,000 years is the upper limit for using it for dating.
The dating method used to estimate age after something died is the carbon dating method. The carbon dating method measures the half-life of the carbon in the organism.
Archeologists determine how old an object is, by using Carbon Dating.
Carbon dating and radioactive dating are more effective, assuming those arn't the same thing. =]
Radio metric dating.
it can be matched to another fossil that can be visually identified as being from the same animal, and then can be matched up to the period the animal lived...or the second method would be to do a radio carbon dating test....but the fossil would have to be fairly old because the carbon dating can tell you how old something is within a few thousand years.
No. C-14 dating is not effective for samples older than about 50,000 years.
precambrian
It is not useful in dating rocks. Only organic substances in terrestrial conditions. No carbon in rocks.
No, carbon-14 dating is only effective for dating organic materials up to about 50,000 years old due to its relatively short half-life (5,730 years). For dating rocks from the Precambrian time (more than 541 million years ago), other isotopic dating methods such as uranium-lead dating or potassium-argon dating would be more appropriate.
The element Carbon is in all living things, it is a basic building block for the construction of organic material and measuring the age of material.
Carbon dating can be used to measure the age of organic materials.
No. Carbon dating only works on organic matter.
Carbon dating is used to measure the age of organic material from long ago.
Carbon 14 is the isotope of carbon measured in radiocarbon dating.
Metal artifacts rarely contain residues of organic products. Carbon-14 dating is adequate only for artifacts containing organic materials.
Estimates the age of organic materials!
Carbon dating is commonly used to determine the age of organic remains by analyzing the ratio of carbon isotopes in a sample. By measuring the decay of radioactive carbon-14 in relation to stable carbon-12, scientists can estimate the age of the organic material.
