(1) Radium dating 

(2) Uranium dating 

(3) Carbon dating 

(4) Deuterium dating 


Answer: (3) Radiocarbon dating (usually referred to as simply carbon dating) is a radiometric dating method that uses the naturally occurring radioisotope carbon-14 (14C) to estimate the age of carbon-bearing materials up to about 58,000 to 62,000 years.
