What is the MAJOR difference between Absolute and Relative Dating?

• Absolute dating shows an estimation of rocks age while Relative doesn't

• Relative and Absolute dating do not have a difference

• Law of Superposition (relative dating)

• Radiocarbon dating (relative dating)

• Radiocarbon dating (absolute dating)

• Law of Superposition (absolute dating)
