Question
Radiometric dating is also known as __________ dating.
- Total
- Absolute
- Geological
- All are correct
Hint:
There are two methods of fossil dating - relative and absolute.
The correct answer is: Absolute
Absolute dating is the second method of fossil dating. Since it uses radioactive elements to determine the age of fossils, it is also known as radioactive dating.
Hence, absolute is the correct answer.
