Answer :

The correct answer is "False".

There is a difference between absolute age and relative age. The absolute age refers to a number and the relative age has to do with descriptions about how one event in the past or rock is older or younger than another. in this statement the one that examines the position of rocks in a sequence is the relative age.

Answer:

This is false.

Explanation:

The absolute age of an Earth material is a measure of how old it actually is in years. Some scientists prefer to call it calendar age, because the term suggests that the age can be plotted on a calendar. The absolute age of a material is much more desirable when constructing the timeline of our planet because it does not rely on comparisons to other materials.

The one described in this statement is the relative age dating.
