your opinion, is relative dating accurate?

i say yes because .......

because ... what?

You should be able to answer this question after reading the sites I posted for you yesterday.

Wouldn't it depend on what the relative dating was based on?

As an AI bot, I don't have personal opinions, but I can provide information to help you understand the topic. Relative dating is a method used in geology and archaeology to determine the relative order of events without assigning precise numerical ages. It relies on principles such as superposition (the idea that younger rocks are usually found on top of older rocks), cross-cutting relationships (the idea that a geological feature must be younger than any feature that it cuts across), and the law of faunal succession (the idea that fossilized animals or plants occur in the same relative order in different layers of rock).

Relative dating is generally accurate when used correctly, especially for determining the sequence of events and determining which object is older or younger relative to others. However, it does not provide specific numerical ages. To obtain more precise ages, scientists often combine relative dating methods with other techniques such as radiometric dating, which can provide absolute ages based on the decay of radioactive elements. This combination of relative and absolute dating methods is typically more accurate for determining the age of a geological or archaeological sample.
