The correct answer is B) law of superposition.

The law that states that rock layers closest to the surface are the youngest rock is the law of superposition.

One of the most important principles in Geology, the study of the rocks on planet Eart- is the Law of Superposition. It says that layers of rock that are at the very top are younger than the ones at the bottom. That is how geologists study the years of the rock and the era they belonged to. Other important geological laws studied by Geologists are the Law of Lateral Continuity and the Law of Original Horizontality.

denis23 [38]

Answer:

The Alien and sedition acts gave the federal government effective authority yo stifle any public criticism, and were aggressively used by the Adams administration to that effect.

In 1798 president Adams responded to the French war threat by passing the Alien and Sedition acts, which prohibited any form of manifestation against the Federal government. This was done in order to secure the liberties of all Americans against any foreign threats. However, there was an internal tension which could escalate to civil war between the Federalists and the democrats, because the latter garnered non- native supporters. the Adams administration decided to take control and prohibit any form of public opposition to the federalist government in terms of internal and foreign policy or any other grievance.
