the outcrop below is labeled with four events. these events are responsible for the present appearance of the outcrop. the events in the outcrop are not ordered chronologically. the events are labeled by the geologic laws that lead to the event. order the events by the geologic law that are used to determine the relative order of the four events that are labeled in the drawing of the outcrop below.



Answer :

The correct order is :

Law of superposition

Principle of Inclusions

Principle of Cross Cutting Relationship

Law of Original Horizontality.

A key stratigraphic principle known as the law of superposition states that the oldest layer in a series of sedimentary rock layers is at the bottom and that the layers get younger as they move up the sequence. But occasionally, deformation might have led to the tilting or even overturning of the crustal rocks. Furthermore, it might not be at all obvious which edge of a given layer is the initial top and which is the originally bottom if erosion has muddled the record by removing significant amounts of the deformed sedimentary rock.
