Plasma is a critical component in the treatment of many serious health problems. This is why there are frequent blood drives encouraging people to donate blood plasma.
A simple blood test can now be used to estimate your 'biological age'. Biological age, unlike chronological age, looks at how your body id developing or breaking down compared to the average. Knowing this can help identify the people most at risk of age-related diseases, such as dementia.
Relative dating helps determine what came first and what followed, but doesn't help determine actual age. Radiometric dating, or numeric dating, determines an actual or approximate age of an object by studying the rate of decay of radioactive isotopes, such as uranium, potassium, rubidium and carbon-14 within that object. Radioactive isotopes decay at a fixed rate.
