Answer:

Lower layer is older than the upper layer

Explanation:

The unconformity is defined as the time of non-deposition. In simple words, it a contact surface between the older and younger sedimentary type of rocks, that results from the erosion particles over a specific period of time.

These sediments are deposited over one another over a due course of time, forming sedimentary rock sequences due to the compaction and lithification process. From the sequences it can be determined that the layers of rock that are at the bottom are considered to be the oldest layers, whereas the layers that are on the top are the younger layers. This is also known as the law of Superposition.

Hence, the lower layers are older than the upper layers.

A type of spectroscopy used to analyze pigments in a painting is:
lorasvet [3.4K]

I would say the answer is D

Paint samples received by forensic laboratories are usually in the form of small chips or smears. Infrared (IR) spectroscopy is one of the most commonly used tools available for the analysis of these types of samples and serves as a staple comparative technique in the assessment of whether or not a questioned sample could have come from a suspected object

The most direct way to probe the vibrational frequencies of a molecule is through infrared spectroscopy. This is because vibrational transitions typically require an amount of energy that corresponds to the infrared region of the spectrum. Raman spectroscopy, which typically uses visible light, can also be used to directly measure vibration frequencies.
