The time frame which correctly described the range of half-lives is FRACTION OF A SECOND TO BILLIONS OF YEARS. Half-life refers to the specified time that is required for a radioactive isotope to reduce to half its original value. The half lives for each isotope varies depending on the contents of the nucleus of the atom. Generally, half-life ranges from a fraction of a second to billions of years.
