Answer:
Explanation:
If you were referring to the picture attached, then you can read on:
1. Faulting occurred after layer E was deposited.
According to the Principle of cross-cutting relationships, things like faults and intrusions that cut along layers are said to be younger than the layers they cut through. So as you can see in the picture, the fault cuts through layers A, B, D, E and even intrusion C. All those layers would be older than the fault that cuts through them.
2. From Youngest to oldest:
Layer G by law of superposition (it was deposited over Layer F and all the other layers.
Layer F by law of superposition (It was deposited over all other layers except Layer G)
Fault line by Principle of cross-cutting (explained above) Notice also that the fault displaces the layers a bit.
Layer C by Principle of cross-cutting (It cuts through layers A, B, D, E)
Layer E by law of superposition (it was deposited over Layer F and all the other layers.
Layer D by law of superposition (it was deposited over Layer B, and all the other layers.
Layer B by law of superposition (it was deposited over Layer A and all the other layers.
Layer A by law of superposition (the oldest layer because it is found lowest among the layers)
