Is radioactive dating important for providing evidence for evolution?
It tells you when the animal that made a fossil was alive. Radio carbon dating proves scientifically the age of a given material. If a fossil is found embedded in material that is x number of years old and a similar fossil is found x number of years older or younger then we can surmise the evolution of that species. There are thousands of examples of theoretical evolution using this method.

How does the law of superposition allow paleontologist to assign relative ages to fossils?
The law of superposition states that the lower down the layer of rock (also called strata) in the ground, the older it is. Therefore, if the fossil is located in a specific strata that is a certain depth beneath the ground it is conclusive as to about how old the fossil is.
