Which is not accurate about the Grand Canyon, in Arizona: Group of answer choices

a. In the deepest part of the canyon, the river cuts through rocks formed by metamorphism of older sedimentary rocks in the heart of a mountain range.

b. The youngest rock layer at the canyon slants downward to the north beneath still-younger rocks of Zion, Bryce, etc.

c. The canyon is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom because the river was wider when the region was wetter, and has narrowed as deserts spread recently.

d. A great thickness of sedimentary rocks exists in Death-Valley-type faulted basins, which can be seen deep in the canyon in many places.

e. The rock record of the canyon contains many unconformities.
