Question 13 Marks
Knowing the age:
  • Describe carbon $14$
  • Which are stable form of carbon $?$
  • When do the animals and plants stop to take carbon $14\ ?$
  • What is archaeomagnetic technology $?$
Answer
For dating, the technology is used widely. One of them is radiocarbon dating. The radicocarbon or carbon $14$ is unstable and weakly readioative form of carbon. The carbon $12$ and $13$ are stable forms. The carbon $12$ takes form and then changes in upper atmosphere. The plants and animals take Carbon $14$ during life and stop it after death. Then it starts to decrease at a rate determined by the law of radio active decay. It is designed to measure this leftover radioactivity. The age of a living being can be known by knowing how much carbon $14$ is left at its death. Another method is archaeomagnetic dating, and the easiest is the tree ring dating. Every year, the changes in a tree take place because of rainfall. They convert in to year rings. The methods are useful in knowing the historical events $-$ its time, civilization, rocks, crime investigation too.

The $\text{D.N.A.}$ is the basic biological material $-$ thousands of them in a cell. Every person has unique finger$-$print. It cannot be faked. It can be identified from blood, saliva or even a single hair is enough for the test Even photo composites or bites on any edible is also enough for identification of any criminal. The technology is so accurate that police or even court also trust and give verdict based on it.
