The age of a once-living artifact can be estimated using the decay of:
Chain Reaction
Carbon-14
Uranium-235
It serves as a heat sink, which helps to keep the plant cool.
All of the above.
Extremely old artifacts do not have detectable quantities of C-14 left.
It is inexpensive to dispose of the radioactive waste that is produced.
