The correct answer is **B. earth's surface is constantly changing**.
Finding the age of the Earth involves studying rocks and geological formations, many of which can be altered or eroded over time due to geological processes. This constant change can make it difficult to obtain an accurate understanding of the Earth's age based solely on surface observations. Additionally, scientists use radiometric dating techniques on ancient rocks to estimate the age of the Earth, but the dynamic nature of the planet can complicate these efforts.
