The answer is; B is younger than D

In sedimentary rocks, the bottom layers are older that overlaying layers. This is because sediments are placed on top of each other by surface runoffs to ocean beds. Therefore, the first sediments to be deposited will always be towards the bottom as more and newer ones are brought in and deposited.
