Answer:
c. Absolute dating
Explanation:
Absolute dating is a mathematical process that is still used today by traditional archaeology to determine the chronological age of a given discovery. This type of dating provides an era or time interval expressed in numbers. This system would therefore be in contrast with relative dating, which positions the events concerning a known reference but without ascertaining the annual difference between the elements taken into consideration.
When we talk about absolute dating we are talking about four different systems:
- Radiometric dating, which in turn is divided between carbon-14 and potassium-argon.
- The luminescence, divided into “Thermoluminescence” e “OSL”.
- Dendrochronology and;
- Dating with amino acids.
