Answer 1

Answer:-

★ As per science we cant determine it's exact age but we can determine it's approximate age. As I have saw the most famous astrophysics he told about how we can determine the earth age. They use radio carbon which is also known as the carbon 14 it's a thing which is widely used by the world to test the fossils and the skeleton.

★ Measuring the skeleton is the best way to determine it's age. As we know whenever we find a skeleton usually we don't get it's whole body. That's why, it's impossible for us to measure it's whole hight in this case we suppose to measure the femur or the thighbone as it is the longest bone in the human body because it covers 1/4 of the body's entires length so it's specially preferable by the scientist to use femur to know about its age.

★ Here teeths also plays important role to know about the age of the skeleton. If it has wisdom teeth the person has crossed the age of 18. But, if there is significantly bone loss it indicates a more advance age. And the permanent teeth Indicates that the person has reached its childhood.

★ Hence, we can detect the age of a person by the above ways.

Question :

★ How to determine the age of a dead body with the help of its skeleton?

Solution :

We need to first observe the skeleton and determine what kind of animal is it.

Next we should look for other missing pieces to complete the skeleton and measure it .

Next we should try to determine the gender of the skeleton and study the skull to gain more information about it.

Now we should check whether the skeleton has teeth of not. This is a crucial process in determining the age of the skeleton.

Finally we should look for ossification i.e, thickening of bones.

The best method is by carbon dating to determine the exact age...
