The carbon-14 radioisotope has proved most useful in:


detecting thyroid problems in people

dating fossils from organisms that lived a very long time ago

measuring the amount of radiation in an area

treating cancer in patients

Respuesta :

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the second option. The carbon-14 radioisotope has proved most useful in dating fossils from organisms that lived a very long time ago. Carbon-14 dating is a method of age determination that depends upon the decay to nitrogen of radiocarbon (carbon-14). Hope this answers the question.
