If the lithology and fossil content of two bodies of rock on opposite sides of a canyon are identical, then these remaining outc
rops were likely physically connected at one time and formed part of an extensive, sheet-like layer of rock. This idea summarizes the principle of_________ .A. superpositionB. original continuityC. original horizontalityD. uniformitarianism
Original continuity is the concept that sediments are deposited horizontally at the original point of formation. This lateral deposit continues, layer by layer unless the sediments are interrupted by a barrier.
The two rocks on the opposite sides of the canyon were likely one body of rock due to their similar lithology and fossil content. It is likely that the canyon formed due to erosion over time, thereby creating a barrier between the rocks.

Europe is extremely large, and can be divided into eastern, western,
northern, and southern Europe. But it's all still Europe. </span>
