The principle of superposition can be used to determine _________. a. the actual age of these rock layers b. the relative densities of these rock layers c. the actual temperatures of these rock layers d. the relative age of these rock layers

Respuesta :

Answer:

d. the relative age of these rock layers

Explanation:

Principle of superposition -

It is the form of relative dating , where the relative age of the rocks are determined .

It is on of the important principle for the study of geological stratigraphy .

According to the principle of superposition , the bottom most layer of the strata is one of the oldest one , and the top most is the most recent one .

Hence , the relative age of the rock can easily be determined by using this principle of superposition .

d determine how rocks are changed
