Answer: over time fossil get old

Step-by-step explanation:

Relative dating determines which of two fossils is older or younger than the other, but not their age in years. Radiometric dating measures the proportion of decay products of radioisotopes with known half-lives to estimate absolute age. Different isotopes with a range of half-lives cover the span of geologic time.
