1. Layer W 2. Layer X 3. Layer Z 4. Layer S a. is the same age as Layer Q b. is the oldest layer c. is the same age as layer R d. appears to have existed in the past and eroded away

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Layer Z is at the bottom, so its the oldest

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Would layer W be the same as layer Q?

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Layer X is same age of R

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Layer W is of Q

OpenStudy (abhisar):

OpenStudy (abhisar):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea I got them but I dont see anything that would indicate layer S as eroding away

OpenStudy (abhisar):

But it's the only left option

OpenStudy (abhisar):

waittt

OpenStudy (abhisar):

Z is same as R

OpenStudy (abhisar):

W is Q

OpenStudy (abhisar):

X eroded away
