What else can I help you with?
Can fossil age determine organism changes related to the time scale?
The discovery of a fossil's age can be determined through methods involving radiometric dating. Fossils must then be compared to other organisms of that time period to determine changes to it.
What must be true for a fossil organism to be useful as a index fossil?
The absolute age of the index fossil was determine by radioactive dating or another absolute method
How do scientists determine the sex of a fossil?
Scientists can determine the sex of a fossil by looking at anatomical differences between males and females, such as pelvic structure or presence of sex-specific features like antlers or horns. Additionally, DNA analysis can sometimes be used to determine the sex of a fossil if well-preserved genetic material is present.
What do paleontologists use to determine age of rocks?
Paleontologists use fossils to determine the relative ages of rocks. Due to evolution the fossil assemblage in rocks changes over time and the different assemblages can therfore be used to place the rocks in which an assemblage is found in its place in the evolutionary sequence.
What do scientists use to determine a fossil's relative age?
Carbon14 dating (isotopic dating)
Can fossil age determine organism changes related to the time scale?
The discovery of a fossil's age can be determined through methods involving radiometric dating. Fossils must then be compared to other organisms of that time period to determine changes to it.
What is the fossil called that geologists use to determine rock ages?
Index Fossil
How do you tell how old a fossil is by the rock layer?
You can determine the relative age of a fossil by looking at the position of the fossil in the rock layers. The closer a fossil is to the surface, the younger it is relative to fossils found deeper in the layers. To determine the absolute age of a fossil, scientists use radiometric dating techniques on the surrounding rocks to determine the age of the rock layer the fossil is found in.
How fossil fuel are related to gas?
gas comes from fossil fuel.
How are magma and fossil fuel related?
Magma and fossil fuel are both earth related. They both come from deep under the earth.
How do you use a root fossil?
A fossil of a root can be used for a number things. They can help determine rainfall during a time period. They can also be used to determine environmental events.
What to methods are used to determine the age of a rock or fossil?
There are two methods used to determine the age of a rock or fossil. The first is carbon dating and the second is radiometric dating.
How scientists estimate the age in years of a fossil?
Scientists can use carbon dating to determine the age of a fossil.
What must be true for a fossil organism to be useful as a index fossil?
The absolute age of the index fossil was determine by radioactive dating or another absolute method
What are some evidences of evolution?
the fossil record of change in earlier speciesthe chemical and anatomical similarities of related life formsthe geographic distribution of related speciesthe recorded genetic changes in living organisms over many generations
Which choice is most related to dinosaur?
Fossil
How do scientists determine age?
by seeing what levels the fossil go to
