Question

HELP ASAP WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Imagine that you are buying books one by one and then piling them up after reading them. Which geologic concept could you use to identify the topmost book as the newest? A. principle of inclusion B. principle of lateral continuity C. law of superposition D. principle of unconformities

Answer 1

The right option is; C. law of superposition

The law of superposition is the geologic concept that you could use to identify the topmost book as the newest.

The law of superposition is a law of geochronology that was first proposed by Nicolas Steno in the late 17th century. The law states that in any undisturbed stratigraphic sequences, the oldest layer will be at the bottom, and the youngest layer will be on top of the sequence. This law explains that the arrangements of rocks can be used to determine their relative age as the youngest rock is always on top, and the oldest rock is always at the bottom.

Answer 2

Hello,


I think that the answer would be B.

I say this because. . . .well look, B states " Principle of literal continuity" If this person was picking a book after book and slightly reading them. The answer B goes well with this.


Hope this helps, And Have an awesome day!
