The
y say that a rock layer found closer to Earth's surface is lower in age as compared to the soil present in the Ma rock layer that is deeper in Earth's surface.
Explanation:
Different layers of soil have different ages because with the passage of time, new layers are formed on the upper surface of lower layer. Age of lower layer is higher that the age of the upper layer. The layer which is present deep in the soil is about millions of year old while the layer that is present at the top is between 10 to 100 years of age due to the deposition of soil particles by the action of wind.
