Is there a difference between Relative and Absolute Dating of rocks? Why?The difference between relative dating and absolute dating is that; relative dating is a estimation using different methods to determine the age of a rock. While absolute dating is a numerical value of the age of a rock.
2.
2. If you say that you are younger than your brother but older than your sister, would that be your absolute age or relative age? Why?
 If you say you are younger than your brother but older than your sister, it is relative dating. The reason for this is no numerical value was specified, and estimation will have to be used. Not enough information was provided
3. 3. Isotopes decay at a constant rate, why do you think scientists use this to get a more accurate and precise age of rocks? Isotopes decaying at a constant rate is a method scientists use to get a more precise age of rocks, as scientists can measure the amounts of parent to daughter isotopes relative to the rate of decay. Scientists will be able to know how long it has been decaying for, which gives a estimate of the rock´s age.

Is there a difference between Relative and Absolute Dating of rocks? Why?- Yes, there is a difference between relative and absolute dating. The difference is that relative dating is an estimate of a rock or fossils age that uses different methods to determine the relative age. Absolute dating is the exact/true age of the rock or fossil. 
2.If you say that you are younger than your brother but older than your sister, what would be your absolute or relative age be? Why?- If you are younger than your brother but older than your sister, you are using relative dating. I know this because it is not giving us exact ages so to determine your age estimation will have to be used. 
3. Isotopes decay at a constant rate, why do you think scientists use this to get a more accurate and precise age of rocks?- Scientists use this to get a more accurate age of rocks because it is more reliable than some other methods and it can give scientists a better answer to the rocks age. ]]> 2020-11-12 14:22:27 UTC https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/916555078 Andy Aguilar, 11/12/2020, 1st period https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/916580970 1. Is there a difference between Relative and Absolute Dating of rocks? Why? There is a difference which is that relative dating is an estimation of a rocks age, while absolute dating is the exact age. This is because of the different methods used for each.
2. If you say that you are younger than your brother but older than your sister, would that be your absolute age or relative age? Why? 
It's relative age because you're not giving your exact age.
3. Isotopes decay at a constant rate, why do you think scientists use this to get a more accurate and precise age of rocks?
Scientists use this to get a more accurate age of rocks because it's more reliable and gives them a better answer as to what a rocks age is]]> 2020-11-12 14:27:36 UTC https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/916580970 Hans Gildore, 11/12/20, 3rd Cord hansgildore https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/917356039 1.  Is there a difference between Relative and Absolute Dating of rocks? Why?
There is an obvious difference between the two dating methods. Relative Dating is used to determine the fossil by estimation using certain factors such as the Law of Superposition. Absolute Dating is used to give an exact age of a fossil with pinpoint accuracy.
2. If you say that you are younger than your brother but older than your sister, would that be your absolute age or relative age? Why?
This would be an example of Relative age, as this uses the comparison between being younger and older siblings which doesn't help in giving an absolute age. But this can give us an understanding of what your age could be.
3. Isotopes decay at a constant rate, why do you think scientists use this to get a more accurate and precise age of rocks?
This method can be used to give a more accurate age of rocks because scientists can trace back to the amount of isotopes within the animal when it died. Because it decays at a constant rate, they could determine the amount of isotopes that had been lost through the years, giving them the an accurate age of the animal and what time period it derived from.]]> 2020-11-12 16:55:32 UTC https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/917356039 Tai Cox 11/12/2020 2nd Core https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/917652557 1. Is there a difference between Relative and Absolute Dating of rocks? Why? Yes, there is a difference relative dating is used to estimate the age of a fossil using index fossils or the law of superposition. Absolute dating is the exact age of the fossil using unstable isotopes to find the age.
2.  If you say that you are younger than your brother but older than your sister, would that be your absolute age or relative age? Why? That would be your relative age because you are estimating how old you are. Absolute age is your exact age the number of years and months.
3. Isotopes decay at a constant rate, why do you think scientists use this to get a more accurate and precise age of rocks? This method is used because rocks are accurate unlike most fossils and rocks are usually in order from oldest to youngest because of the law of superposition. ]]> 2020-11-12 17:53:13 UTC https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/917652557 Kate Barnhill, 11/12/2020, 2nd Core https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/917659996 1. Is there a difference between Relative and Absolute Dating of rocks? Why?
Yes, there is a difference between relative and absolute dating of rocks. The difference is that absolute dating is an exact age of the rocks while relative dating is a realistic estimation of the rocks age. Scientists find the relative age by looking at other fossils and inferring the organisms age based on their knowledge. Scientists find the absolute age when they can pinpoint the exact age of the fossil.
2. If you say that you are younger than your brother but older than your sister, would that be your absolute age or relative age? Why?
If you are younger than your brother but older than your sister, you are using relative dating. I know this because you are not saying your exact age, but instead you are using your knowledge to estimate your age is greater than your sisters while less than your brothers.
3. Isotopes decay at a constant rate, why do you think scientist use this to get a more accurate are precise age of rocks?
Scientist use this to get a more accurate age of rocks because it is more reliable to observe compared to other methods. From the Isotopes scientists can observe how long it has been decaying while giving them a better estimation of the rocks age.

Yes there is a difference between relative and absolute dating of rocks. Relative dating is when you estimate the age of a rock, in which you use the Law of superposition. Meanwhile, absolute dating tells your the EXACT age (no questions asked).
2. If you say that you are younger than your brother but older than your sister, would that be your absolute age or relative age? Why?
It would be considered my (your) relative age because it doesn't tell my EXACT age, it only tells you that I am younger than my brother but older than my sister.
 3. Isotopes decay at a constant rate, why do you think scientists use this to get a more accurate and precise age of rocks?
Since the isotopes decay at a constant rate, it makes scientist be more EXACT with the rock/s age.]]> 2020-11-12 17:56:58 UTC https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/917672545 Tam D https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/917836831 2020-11-12 18:29:15 UTC https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/917836831 Will Cardwell 3rd core https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/917935690 1. There is a difference between relative and absolute dating of rocks because as the names imply, one is absolute and one is relative. Absolute dating is far more accurate than relative dating is, which is simply an estimate based off of Law of Superstition. 
2. If you are older than your brother but younger than your sister, that is your relative age. Absolute age would be your exact age, but a rough estimate of your age could be made based on the age of your brother and your sister since you are inbetween.
3. Since isotopes decay at a constant rate, it is easier to calculate exactly how old the isotope is and for how long it has been decaying.]]> 2020-11-12 18:48:54 UTC https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/917935690 Kaileigh Hill, 11/12/20 https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/917944614 1. Is there a difference between Relative and Absolute Dating of rocks? Why?
Yes, there's a difference between the two.Difference between relative and absolute dating of rocks is that relative age is the age of a rock layer or maybe the fossils that are inside of the layer and the absolute age is the number age of a layer of the rock for fossils. You can determine absolute age by using radiometric dating as well. 
2. If you say that you are younger than your brother but older than your sister, would that be your absolute age or relative age? Why?
If you said that you're younger than your brother but older than your sister you would use relative age. I know this because if you used relative age that your be your age compared to your other siblings ages. absolute age is the numeric age of your siblings.
3. Isotopes decay at a constant rate, why do you think scientists use this to get a more accurate and precise age of rocks?
I think that scientist use this as a more accurate and precise age of rocks because if I certificate a constant rate that means that it is and when you line it has a constant slope so they can predict it's percent of decay in the future. Another reason why they might use this is because it is easy to tell what it will look like in the future.

There is in fact a difference between these two types of dating, as seen in the difference in their names. Relative dating does not give off an exact age to rocks but instead gives out an appropriate approximation with terms such as what period they came from and such. In heavy contrast, absolute dating seeks an exact number for the ages of rocks. A specific date, per se. In summary, absolute dating is a more specific type of dating rather than relative dating.
2. If you say that you are younger than your brother but older than your sister, would that be your absolute age or relative age? Why?
The sentence above would be an example of relative dating. I do not directly say my age, however, I compare my age to other ages, saying I'm older than my sister and younger than my brother. This would give you a rough idea of my age, making it relative.
3. Isotopes decay at a constant rate, why do you think scientists use this to get a more accurate and precise age of rocks?
If their decay is constant, that means you can derive how long the decay has been happening, almost like a math problem with slope and such. This provides scientists with closer answers to the ages of rocks, and it can be done with a precise method, that being math.]]> 2020-11-12 18:51:58 UTC https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/917950878 Audrey Baright, 11/12/2020, 3rd Core https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/917960243 1. Is there a difference between relative and absolute dating of rocks? Why?
Yes, there is a difference between relative dating and absolute dating of rocks. The difference is that relative dating is an estimate of the age of rocks. Absolute dating is the Exact age of rocks.
2. If you say that you are younger than your brother but older than you sister, would that be your absolute age or your relative age? Why?
This would be your relative age. You are only giving enough information to know your age based off two other ages so this is a time frame of what your age could possibly be but not your exact age.
3. Isotopes decay at a constant rate, why do you think scientists use this to get a more accurate and precise age of rocks?
Scientists use isotopes to get a more accurate age of rocks because they decay at a constant rate which scientists will be able to find the rate of that decay and follow it to get an accurate and exact age of rocks.]]> 2020-11-12 18:53:53 UTC https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/917960243 Deen Shehzad 11/12/2020 3rd core https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/918030863 1. Is there a difference between relative and absolude dating of rocks? Why?
Yes, there is a difference because relative dating gives the geologival time scale of there rock existed. Absolute dating is the absolute age of a rock.
2. If you say that you are younger then your brother but older then your sister, would that be relative or absolute age? Why?
It would be relative because it does not give exact numbers, it only gives the time scale of where the age gap, not the absolute age.
3. Isotopes decay at a constant rate, why do you think scientists use this to get a more accurate and precise age of rocks?
Scientists use the isotopes because you can find the rate of decay and get a more accurate age of rocks.]]> 2020-11-12 19:07:55 UTC https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/918030863 Krizia Troches Diaz, 11/12/2020, 3rd Core https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/918044753 1. Is there a difference between Relative and Absolute Dating of rocks? Why? There is a difference between Relative and Absolute Dating of rocks because relative dating is more of an estimate of when the rock was formed. Absolute dating is the exact time of when the rock was formed. 
2. If you say that you are younger than your brother but older than your sister, would that be your absolute age or relative age? Why?
It is relative age because youre not saying your exact age but more of a parameter or time frame of where your age is.
3. Isotopes decay at a constant rate, why do you think scientists use this to get a more accurate and precise age of rocks? 
Scientists use this so they can I guess go back however times they need too at that constant rate so they can go as close as the exact age as possible

Yes, the difference between relative and absolute dating is that relative dating is a estimate of an age and absolute dating is the exact age.

2. If you say that you are younger than your brother but older than your sister, would that be your absolute age or relative age? Why?
 If I said that I was younger than my brother but older than my sister that would be relative age because I am not giving an exact age of my brother or my sister.

Is there a difference between Relative and Absolute Dating of rocks? Why?
Yes, because relative dating is an estimate or guess of the age of a rock and absolute dating is the exact age of a rock.

2. If you say that you are younger than your brother but older than your sister, would that be your absolute age or relative age? Why?
It is relative age because I'm not giving the exact age, instead, I'm giving an estimate.

Is there a difference between Relative and Absolute Dating of rocks? Why?
Yes. Relative dating is more of an estimate than something numerical. Absolute dating gives you the numerical age of the rock.
2. If you say that you are younger than your brother but older than your sister, would that be your absolute age or relative age? Why?
This would be your Relative Age. It is your relative age because it does not tell you any of their exact ages just that one is older and younger than another.

Yes. The difference between absolute and relative dating is that relative is based on other events and not exact while absolute dating is an exact date.

2.This would be relative date because it is not your exact age but you can guess about your age based on how old your brother and sister are.

3. They use this to get more accurate results because an isotope decays at a constant rate and goes through half-lfes at a constant rate making the estimation of how old something is based on the amount of decay of the isotope pretty accurate. ]]> 2020-11-19 14:18:27 UTC https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/941401967 Javia Bass javiabass https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/942701869 1. The difference between chemical and physical weathering is Chemical weathering alters the chemicals that compost the rocks while physical weathering affects the structure of the rock.
2. The three different types of weathering is Wedging, exfoliation, and abrasion
3. Oxidation does not weaken rocks because its a chemical that reacts to oxygen.

3. Yes because When rocks, particularly those with iron in them, are exposed to air and water, the iron undergoes oxidation.]]> 2020-11-19 18:52:48 UTC https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/942915257 Janine Rei Mangubat janinereimangubat https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/995197117 1. The difference between relative dating and absolute dating is that relative dating is more of a guess or idea of what age the rock was. Absolute dating is a specific age with a specific number and it is the exact time.
2. Relative dating, because as it says in the answer above, absolute dating is a specific number and the exact number, so it would be relative because your age is being compared to the relativeness of the things around you.
3. Scientists use this method so they can more easily determine the age of a rock. If the isotopes decay at a CONSTANT rate, than they can calculate how old the rock is.]]> 2020-12-07 17:53:55 UTC https://padlet.com/Watdog/q525qz8xcq2v15c5/wish/995197117
