The correct answer is: The principle of original horizontality provides the basis for the law of superposition.

<em>The principle of original horizontality</em> <u>stated that all rock layers were originally horizontal </u>(<em>in sedimentary rocks</em>). This principle set the ground for Geologists to figure out The law of superposition which states that <u>the youngest layer is on top and the oldest is on bottom </u>in any sequence of sediments and rocks.

One way the UN Security Council maintains peace throughout the world is through the adoption of
tia_tia [17]

Answer: UN resolution on security

Explanation:

After the end of World War II, a UN institution was established because of the extent of the destruction that the war had brought. Many goals and objectives are set before the assembly of this. One of the UN's tasks is to maintain peace in the world. This institution was founded in 1945. If a war threat arises, the UN has several ways to respond.

In this context, Chapter 7 of the UN Charter provides several mechanisms for conflict prevention. If the council accepts the fact that the threat is real, they call on the party who caused the conflict to end the military offensive. If the warning is rejected, UN member states are ordered to sever bilateral and economic relations with the country. If the conflict continues, the UN may use military force.The adoption and implementation of the UN screw amendment require two-thirds of the votes of the UN General Assembly.The US, Russia, China, France, and the United Kingdom have the right to veto every decision.

Paladinen [302]

Answer:  Their journey became known as<u> the "Trail of Tears."</u>

Explanation/context:

In the court case, <em>Worcester v. Georgia</em> (1832), Samuel Worcester was a Christian minister working among the Cherokee and was supportive of the Cherokee cause.  To block the activity of a man like Rev. Worcester, the state of Georgia passed a law prohibiting white persons to live within the Cherokee Nation territory without permission from the Georgia state government.  Worcester and other missionaries challenged this law, and the case rose to the level of a Supreme Court decision.  The decision by the Supreme Court, written by Chief Justice Marshall, struck down the Georgia law and reprimanded Georgia for interfering in the affairs of the Cherokee Nation.  Marshall wrote that Indian nations are "distinct, independent political communities retaining their original natural rights." 

President Andrew Jackson chose not to enforce the court's decision.  He said at the time: "The decision of the Supreme Court has fell stillborn, and they find that it cannot coerce Georgia to yield to its mandate."  He told the Cherokee that they would need to operate under the jurisdiction of the state of Georgia or else relocate.  This was a step in the direction of what became known as the "Trail of Tears," when the Cherokee were removed from Georgia and moved to territory in Oklahoma.
