A fossil is found to contain the radioactive parent and daughter isotopes uranium 235U, and lead 207Pb, in the ratio 12.5% to 87.5%. Assuming that no 207Pb was present when the fossil first formed, estimate the age of this sample.Please show some thought process and a therefore statement. Thank you very much, have a great day!
For this activity, you will be reviewing the geological time scale in the module readingassignment from the Geological Time chapter in the PRI Digital Atlas of Ancient Life –online textbook and the Earth History chapter from the OER Commons Earth ScienceTextbook. Use the images of the geologic time scales in your readings to help you makeyour Geologic Time Scale concept sketch nstructions:Sketch and label a geologic time scale. Include dates of the following events in EarthHistory on your time scale in the appropriate time period (you may have to look these up onthe internet but most are listed in your readings). First appearance of free oxygen in the atmosphere Earliest fossils Oldest animal fossils Great Dying Extinction (worst mass extinction at end of the Permian Period) – alsoexplain possible causes of this extinctionArchaeopteryx sp. appeared First Flowering PlantsTyrannosaurus rex appeared K-T Extinction event (Dinosaurs died out) – also explain possible causes of…
