Answer: Putting things in order from youngest to oldest.

Explanation:  

Relative dating entails the placing of events in a sequence of their occurrence based on relationships between earth materials. In order to date a rock using the techniques of relative dating, some principles are usually followed. Some of the principles of relative dating are:

Principle of superposition

Principle of original horizontality

Principle of lateral continuity

Cross-cutting principle

Principle of fossil and fauna succession.

All of these principles helps establish succinct relationships between rock layers and what they contain. Fossils which are the preserved remains of organisms in rocks are very essential in relative dating of rocks.

Putting things in order from the youngest to the oldest is relative dating. Other options are categorized as absolute dating. In absolute dating, an exact date is affixed to a geologic event.

xeze [42]

Answer:

I don't really know but if it was a 1v1 a lion will win.

Explanation:

According to https://a-z-animals.com<em> "A lion would win a fight against a zebra. Although that shouldn’t be a surprise, we feel it’s necessary to tell you that lions don’t always win these fights. Most of the time, lions attack in groups to take down large prey. They ambush a zebra and use their power and aggressiveness to bring it to the ground."</em>

Also, according to https://a-z-animals.com, it states,<em>  "The only thing is that zebras don’t really have the instincts to attack and kill a lion. They want to flee. So, in the vast majority of cases, a persistent lion is going to kill a zebra. Don’t always count out the zebra, though. Zebras have been known to send lions down in a heap after landing a good kick to the jaw, head, or neck."

</u>I don't really know because I never saw 20 zebras and 3 lions fight...
I hoped this helped you at least!
