Question

The law of original horizontality suggests that rock strata are always layered in a horizontal plane. If rock strata are tilted in some way, a geologic map shows the tilted rock with _____.

-fault line symbols
-fold axis symbols
-strike-and-dip symbols
-letter symbols

Answer 1

The law of original horizontality suggests that rock strata are always layered in a horizontal plane. If rock strata are tilted in some way, a geologic map shows the tilted rock with strike-and-dip symbols.

Answer 2

If rock strata are tilted in some way, a geologic map shows the tilted rock with strike-and-dip symbols. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the third option. I hope this is the answer you were looking for and it should have helped you. Geologic maps are mostly used by geologists.
