    Carbon-14 is the radioisotope that is used to determine the age of once-living organisms. Radioactive dating is a technique of comparing the abundance ratio of a radioactive isotope to a reference isotope to determine the age of a material. The mostly used radioisotope is carbon-14, because may rocks and organisms contain this radioisotope.
