Answer: EVAPORATION.

Explanation: Salinity can be defined as the saltiness or the concentration of salt dissolved in a body of water. Measured in grams of salt divided by the kg of water.

Evaporation increases the salinity of water. Basically, evaporation is the process of converting liquid into gaseous state. In essence, concentration of a solution can be increased by evaporation and since the salinity of water is measured in grams of salt divided by the kg of water, therefore, the lesser the amount of water per salt, the higher the salinity.

A fault is found that cuts through lower rock
Annette [7]

b. The fault is younger than the layers it cuts  through, but older than the layers above it.

Explanation:

Since the fault cuts through the lower rock layers and terminates against the ones above it, we can conclude that the fault is younger than the layers it cut through but older than the layers above it.

  We know this based on the principle of cross-cutting.

The principle of cross-cutting relationship suggests that "a fault and an intrusion is younger than the rocks they cut through".

  • This principle is very important in determining the relative age of sedimentary strata.
  • The rock units through which a fault permeates must have been there before the fault formed. So they are older.
  • If the overlying layer above the fault is not affected then it is younger than the faulting event
