FOSSILS:
A fossil is any preserved remains, impression, or trace of any once-living thing from a past geological age.
HOW AGE OF FOSSILS IS DETERMINED:
Relative dating is used to determine a fossils approximate age by comparing it to similar rocks and fossils of known ages. Absolute dating is used to determine a precise age of a fossil by using radiometric dating to measure the decay of isotopes, either within the fossil or more often the rocks associated with it.
