How old is the oldest tree?
215289
If you want to know about a currently living tree, then this is it.  Ten thousand feet up in California's White Mountains lives the oldest living thing on Earth. It is a bristlecone pine that was around when the Egyptian Pyramids were built. Ironically, after weathering all the droughts, high winds, and lightning strikes that must have struck over the millennia, the nearly 5,000-year-old Methuselah Tree now faces threats from the one force of nature that seemingly can do it harm: people.

No.  The only way of confirming its accuracy is to date objects that we already know how old they are.  These fall into the scope of the last 5000 years, a period which they already say is less accurate than when measuring older objects.  Scientists always seem to be arguing about the age of things regardless of what the carbon dating says.

Excluding Biblical times, when documentation was not on par with today's standards, the oldest person ever was:\n\nJeanne Calment, who lived to be 122 years 164 days (1875–1997)\n\nThat's pretty darn old.\n\nMore info on the site below:

The oldest 'road' (paved) that I can think of at the moment is Route 66....hope that helps!

Sahelanthropus tchadensis is the oldest fossil hominid...In the below website it mentions why it is the oldest....\nhttp://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/homs/species.html

It isn't important to live a long life, but it should be a meaning full one.look at the oak tree,it lives for 300 years ,but it is of no use to others.on the other hand  take an example of a lily, it has a extremely short life,it just lives for a day, n then withers away, but during it's lifetime it spreads a lot of radiance ,beauty and fragrance around it.it enlivens the environment.There's no use of living a life which is of no gud to others.

How about a more informative answer?\n\nFrom Wikipedia:\n\n\n\n\nHomo sapiens live on average 37 years in Zambia and on average 81 years in Japan. The oldest confirmed recorded age for any human is 122 years, though some people are reported to have lived longer. The following information is derived from the Encyclopedia Britannica, 1961:\n\nHumans by Era, Average Lifespan (in years)\n\n    * Neanderthal, 20\n    * Neolithic, 20\n    * Classical Greece, 28\n    * Classical Rome, 28\n    * Medieval England, 33\n    * End of 19th Century, 37\n    * Early 20th Century, 50\n    * Circa 1940, 65\n    * Current (in the Western world), 77-81\n\n\nCheck out the wiki article if you want more info.\n\nHope this helps! =)

Well I did some searching for Guanlong wucaii and I was not able to find anything about it on the internet. There is some chinese pottery named wucai that is from the Ming period, from about 1368-1642 CE. So I really have no idea what object it is you are referring to in your question. \n\nAnyway, carbon dating is not used dating objects as old as 190 million years. Carbon 14, a radioactive isotope of carbon, is not much good for dating things older than 60,000 years of age, because all the radioactive carbon will have decayed away if one looks at objects much older than that. However, there are dozens of radiometric dating techniques, some that are good for objects billions of years old (like potassium-argon dating, or uranium-lead dating).\n\nThere are many other techniques besides radioactive dating. One can count tree rings. One can count layers of ocean bottom mud. One can count rings of coral growth. One can look at the changes in the protein structure since a creature died (the handedness of the organic molecules changes with time). And there are many other techniques (see references). These methods can be cross-referenced against each other for checking and improving confidence, and reducing error bars.

Around 600,000 years old. Maybe even older.

You have to remember plants did not cause the atmosphere to become oxygenic in the primordial days, cyanobacteria did. I'm guessing there are probably trillions of trees in the world.

It is estimated to be between 40,000 and 60,000 years ago. No accurate analysis has been conducted. It is beleived they arrived accross from PNG. It is interesting to note that also the dingo did arrive the same way, having ancestors that originate in S.E. ASIA.

THE OLDEST ONE IS 12, THE YOUEST 10. SO THE MIDDLE MUST BE 11
