    d. uses measurements of the proportions of various isotopes in meteorites.

    Explanation:

    The age of solar system is determined by using mostly meteorites and radioactive dating technique. Meteorites are components of our planets and By radioactive dating these meteorites allows us to give a estimated age of our solar system. The oldest meteorites which are found in the solar system are 4.571 billion years old, therefore the age of the solar system is 4.571 billion years.
