Question

Explain how you arranged the rock layers in the simulations. How did you infer which layer was the newest? How did you know which layers should be next to each other?

Answer 1

The layers on top are the newer and youngest layers. This means the ones at the bottom are older. This is because the lauers grow on top of eachother

Answer 2

Answer: You should arrange them from oldest to newest in a simulation.

The layers should be the Archean time period on the bottom ( 2.5B+ Years old ), then Proterozoic ( 541M - 2.5B Years old ), and then Paleozoic ( 252 - 541M Years old )
