yawa3891 [41]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

False. It doesn't give the exact age of the rock layers.

Explanation:

  • Geologists define relative dating as the sequence in which rocks are arranged. Rock layers are called strata and relative dating can't give the exact age of these layers.
  • It's assumed that the old rock layers will be at the bottom while the new rock layers will be at the top. This is described as superposition principle.
  • Normally, these sedimentary rock layers appear in a horizontal manner although they can slightly tilt.
