The answer to this is older, but it's not a proven fact even though schools teach it as if it were. It is still just a theory if you think about it with how much the earth moves, areas of rock could be complete upside down and no one would know, it would be like history in reverse.

Answer:

Option (B)

Explanation:

According to the principle of faunal succession, the fossilized plants and animals are deposited in the layers of sedimentary rocks in a vertical manner succeeding one another and they are very distinct, dependable and easily recognized over a broad horizontal distances.

The fossils that are found at the bottom layer is the oldest fossil which have deposited in the ancient time. And the fossils that are present at the top are the youngest fossils and are of geologically very recent.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).

Fittoniya [83]
The correct option is B. The newest crust on earth is located at the actual site of the floor spreading and as new crusts are formed they replace it. Thus, the older the crust the farther it is from the mid ocean ridge. 
Sea floor spreading is a geological process in which tectonic plates splits apart from one another. It occurs at divergent plate boundaries.

The infect the host and take over host replication machinery and replicates itself. Although it is not able to replicate outside the living body.

They adapt to the host's body environment as many adaptation are present in it as capsid layer which protects its genetic material from getting degrade till the time it reaches nucleus of the cell.

There are 7 point criteria for an organism to be living, virus fulfils some of it except having made up of cells and having cellular organization.
