An advantage of the accelerator mass spectrometer (AMS) method of radiocarbon dating is
a. although not as precise as standard dating methods that count beta decays, AMS dating is less subject to problems caused by atmospheric fluctuations in 14C.
b. AMS dating is much cheaper than standard dating methods that count beta decays.
c. AMS dating requires much smaller carbon samples than standard dating methods.
d. AMS dates are easier to calibrate than standard radiocarbon dates.
e. that it can date to 100,000 years or more.
Question 2
Plants that are of similar ages and that grew in the same soil could produce different radiocarbon ages due to
a. use of different photosynthetic pathways.
b. the reservoir effect.
c. De Vries effect.
d. problems with calibrating the radiocarbon curve.
e. clarity of laboratory reports
