The correct answer is called Correlating

Explanation

Correlating or correlating rock layers is an instrument to determine the age of rocks, it means fossils are used to determine the age of rock layers, for this process it is necessary the fossil had lived a short time so they are sure it appears in only one layer and belongs just to one specific age. Later these fossils are matched to different rocks or layers and thus, different areas with the same fossils can be studied and compared to determine the age of each of the layers above or under the fossil. Also, the word <em>correlation</em> refers to two or more objects, people or other being related to each other as in the case of fossils and rock whose age is related and thus can be correlated or matched up.

What was one consequence of the Doctrine of Discovery? 3 points Native peoples were forced to pay for lands the Europeans discov
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Native peoples were no longer entitled to lands they had always occupied.

Explanation:

The 1493 Doctrine of Discovery is the one-sided law/ doctrine that was passed by the European monarchies to acquire lands owned by other indigenous tribes. This law was also used to justify such land-grabbing in the name of civilization and 'Christianizing' them, thereby providing salvation to the 'lost souls'.

This spiritual, political, and legal claim made by the European powers was made just as a means to justify the land acquisition. The doctrine 'legalizes' and allows the possession or taking over of native lands as long as the natives were given the "gifts of conversion and civilization" in return. This will allow the European monarchies and authorities to get access and possess the New World. But for the natives, they were no longer rightful owners of the lands they had always occupied.

Thus, the <u>correct answer is the second option</u>.
