Imagine that a scientist develops a hypothesis about how gravity works in einstein's theory of relativity, one of the most important theories in physics. the scientist tests the hypothesis in a lab setting and collects data that go against a part of the theory of relativity other scientists repeat the experiment and collect the same data with the same conclusions some of these scientists develop their own experiments, which also generate data that go against the theory of relativity what is most likely to happen next?

relative dating involves things like higher layers are most recent than rocks lower in the sequence. this can be extended to the known sequence of fossils. rocks containing rabbit fossils are later than those containing dinosaur fossils.  

absolute dating methods mainly use radioactive elements that have known rates of decay and produce recognizable products. for example potassium 40 decays to produce argon. once a rock has solidified the argon is trapped. by measuring the argon and potassium0 you can get an accurate number for the age.  

some other methods are good for archaeological ages. dendrochronology involves recognizing the sequence of tree rings. the orientation of magnetized particles in baked clay can be used to date a fire.

hope this .. .

the answer is otpion c) understanding

he wants to be heard one more time. he wants to be understood. he needs the truth one more time.

this is a good question! i'll do some research and come back when i have the answer!

carbon atoms, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen.
