Answer:

D. the law of crosscutting relationships

Explanation:

The law of cross-cutting relationships can help explain the age of the rock as it relates to the surrounding rock.

This law is one of the premise of relative dating. The relationship between the intrusion and rock body or country rock is used to discern their age.

  • When intrusions cross-cuts the host rocks, they are usually younger.
  • The host rock must haven emplaced before the intrusion sets in
  • The intrusion utilizes weak planes within the rock body to cool and solidify.
  • Now, when they are emplaced, then a vein or other intrusive bodies forms.
