Dinosaurs once stomped across the Yukon, leaving tracks in mud that were buried in more mud and hardened to stone. Some may have
densk [106]

In this question, we are not provided with the image of the dinosaur track. Because of this, we are unable to tell whether this specific track is right-side up or upside-down. However, we can give you some guidance so that you can identify this on your own.

In general, in this type of prints, mud cracks extend downward into soft sediment. These cracks mean that when more sediment is washed in, the second layer fills the cracks beneath. Afterwards, once the layers have hardened, the rock may be cracked apart. Based on this, we can conclude that if you see troughs in a mud-crack pattern, you re looking at the second layer, which was originally right-side up.
