<span><span>Porosity is the amount of empty space in a rock or other earth material (like sand) - in other words, it's how much water a material can hold. 

Permeability refers to how well water flows through a material - the flow is controlled by how large the pores are and how well connected the pores are in a given object.</span><span>Therefore, there these are two primary factors that limit the movement and the amount of water (or other fluids) retained  in rocks/sedimentary materials.</span></span>

Answer:The law of superposition states that rock strata (layers) farthest from the ground surface are the oldest (formed first) and rock strata (layers) closest to the ground surface are the youngest (formed most recently). A fossil is the remains or traces of plants and animals that lived long ago.

Explanation:

Law of Superposition

The relative ages of rocks are important for understanding Earth's history. New rock layers are always deposited on top of existing rock layers. Therefore, deeper layers must be older than layers closer to the surface. This is the law of superposition.

Something that we hope you have learned from these lessons and from your own life experience is that the laws of nature never change. They are the same today as they were billions of years ago. Water freezes at 0° C at 1 atmosphere pressure; this is always true.

Knowing that natural laws never change helps scientists understand Earth’s past because it allows them to interpret clues about how things happened long ago. Geologists always use present-day processes to interpret the past. If you find a fossil of a fish in a dry terrestrial environment did the fish flop around on land? Did the rock form in water and then move? Since fish do not flop around on land today, the explanation that adheres to the philosophy that natural laws do not change is that the rock moved.

What does the interpretation of experimental data leads to? a theroy or a hypothesis
arsen [322]

Answer:

<u>scientist general conduct test and analysis by experimenting data that leads to formation of hypothesis for the study.</u>

Explanation:

  • A hypothesis is an explanation of the phenomenon and for a hypothesis to be scientifically true it must be tested as generally based on observations, which is an unproven phenomenon in which needs to be testes first and the explanation in terms of facts or figures are thus a part of the data.
  • A hypothesis relies on the prediction and suggestions of facts while a theory is supportive of the evidence. Hense a theory has to be accurate and not an experimental basis.
  • Thus it will be considered as a hypothesis as to its more subjective explanation and a work in progress.
