3. While visiting the Grand Canyon, you are amazed by the depth of layers of sedimentary rock before you, the law of superposition-- is evident here where progressively younger layers have formed over time and are stacked upon each other.

4. A fault cuts through layers of limestone, sandstone, and conglomerate. The surrounding layers must be older than the fault.
