Both Jenny and Jack are correct.

Explanation:

According to the principle of superposition, both Jenny and Jack are perfectly correct.

The principle of superposition states that the oldest bed is at the bottom and the youngest is on top in an undeformed sequence of rock strata.

From this principle we can see that the sequence of the bed is:

 

  • soil                                                               Youngest rock layer
  • loam
  • sand and gravel
  • loam
  • clay
  • impermeable rock (limestone)                      Oldest rock layer

We can see that truly the clay is older than the sand and gravel according to Jenny.

The limestone is also older than loam according to Jack.

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Dementia

Explanation:

Dementia is a condition that involves impaired mental ability and memory which is common among older adults. This condition, which is a major contributor to disability and placement of older adults in nursing homes, can be as a result of several factors of which nutrition has a major role to play. Metabolic and endocrine problem that results to the inability of the body system to regulate nutrients such as calcium and vitamin B-12, are some of the factors that triggers dementia in older adults. Also, nutritional deficiencies such as dehydration, inadequate intake of vitamin B-1, vitamins B-6, copper,vitamin E, and vitamin B-12 increases the chances of developing dementia in older adults.

Research shows that low levels of vitamin D can be linked to increased risk of developing dementia, and as such, supplements such as B-complex vitamin, vitamin C, and vitamin D is usually recommended for the prevention of dementia, especially when they are deficient in the diets taken.
