C because graduated terrace steps are commonly used to farm on hilly or mountainous terrain. Terraced fields decrease both erosion and surface runoff, and may be used to support growing crops that require irrigation, such as rice. ( It basically means that terraced farming is farming over steps and using rain to wash away old soil so that's where the wet part comes in)
The answer would be D.
As for The other options, it cannot be A because there is no way we could know if they are exactly similar. B states they are dramatically different when there is obviously some similarity. C states that they are from the same time period, which is impossible as there is no way a layer of sedimentary rock can be the same age as current day mud. There are likely many layers above the studied area that can denote the age.
Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
