Answer:
Option (C)
Explanation:
Radiocarbon dating is a technique to determine the age of an object or a fossil. This is also known as the carbon dating method. Here, carbon is used which has a half life of approximately 5700 years. This half life depicts the time required for the object (fossil) containing carbon to decay half of its initial composition. It is a very efficient method and are used to date objects that are comparatively very recent. This unstable carbon-14 changes to a stable nitrogen-14 after it is completely decayed.
Thus, this method helps in determining the absolute age of an object.
Hence, the correct answer is option (C).
