Question

Studying the decay of radioactive isotopes in dead organisms helps scientists to identify fossilized remains. The ratio of C-12 to C-14 in the atmosphere is 1 x 10¹². The table shows this ratio inside the body of three organisms.

Organism	C12/C14 Ratio
E	8 x 10¹²
F	1 x 10¹²
G	4 x 10¹²

What can most likely be concluded from the above information?

Only Organism F is alive, and Organism G died before Organism E. Only Organism F is alive, and Organism E died before Organism G. Only Organism E is alive, and Organism G died before Organism F. Only Organism E is alive, and Organism F died before Organism G.
