The formation D in the Geologic Cross Section must be younger than formation C because of cross cutting relationships.

The cross-cutting feature states that if any rock is transversed by another rock, then the rock which is cut is older in age, which means that the fault or intrusion is younger than the rocks that it cuts through. an intrusive rock body is younger than the rocks it intrudes.

The full sequence of events is:

  • Layer C formed.
  • Layer B formed.
  • Layer A formed.
  • After layers A-B-C were present, intrusion D cut across all three.
  • Fault E formed, shifting rocks A through C and intrusion D.
  • Weathering and erosion created a layer of soil on top of layer A.
