Answer:

The principle of superposition states that the oldest sedimentary rock units are at the bottom, and the youngest are at the top.

Explanation:

The principle of superposition states that in an undeformed sequence of sedimentary rocks, each layer of rock is older than the one above it and younger than the one below it (Figures 1 and 2). Accordingly, the oldest rocks in a sequence are at the bottom and the youngest rocks are at the top.

Lowest.

the lowest stratum tend to have the slowest-moving creatures; above them are faster ones. Evolutionary scientists declare these lowest strata are many millions of years old (570 million for the oldest, the Cambrian), and the topmost to be the most recent.

Hope it helps.

Have a nice day noona!~  ̄▽ ̄❤️

What can scientists use to determine the type of plant an organism consumed?
Agata [3.3K]
Answer: Carbon 12 and Carbon 13

The distribution of these isotopes in plant tissue can indicate the path way of carbon metabolism that is either C3 fixation or C4 fixation. This help scientist to know if the plant consumed by organism is C3 plant or C4 plant by measuring the isotopic signature of their collagen and other tissues.

This can help scientist know which plant is consumed by animals.
