Question
Refer to diagram 1 above. All of the lower case letters refer to sedimentary units. They are right-side up and there are no faults along the contracts between these layers other than the one that is labeled. There is a sequence of 10 events here, including the deposition of units a-f and y, folding of units a through f, fault movement along the fault, and intrusion of the pluton. Ignore the stratigraphic horizon that lies beneath “a” and note that “pluton” refers to a body of granite in this example. Put a number from 1(oldest) to 10(youngest) for each of the following:
Folding of layers a through f:___
Deposition of a:___
Deposition of b:___
Deposition of c:___
Deposition of d:___
Deposition of e:___
Deposition of f:___
Deposition of y:___
Movement along fault:___
Intrusion of pluton:___
For this question, i believe letter a is oldest since it is on bottom...? and as it goes up it gets older. Please Help me complate this chart. I asked(posted) this question like a few hours ago and the person didn't even help me complete anything. Please help me label them from 1(youngest) to 10(oldest). Thank You.
