Answer 3

natasha? are you there?

Answer 4

Yes.. I'm thinking lol

Answer 5

oh.

Answer 6

I think it's either B or C, but I'm not sure which one... I'm not the best at these questions..

Answer 7

I know D can't be the correct answer

Answer 8

i think so too and i am not good with these questions either!

Answer 9

If you knew what to look for,you could probably tell if the layer below G has been eroded or not... but I'm not sure what to look for..

Answer 10

i think looking for the fact what is true?

Answer 11

See how the line that separates G from the layers below it is wavy? None of the others look like that.. that's why I'm thinking that letter C is true..

Answer 12

But I don't want to tell you the wrong answer lol

Answer 13

yeah i wonder how the lines did get wavy!

Answer 14

don't worry, might be C

Answer 15

i will go with C for now.

Answer 16

That's my guess. It makes sense. Erosion changes the shape of things, and every other layer seems packed tightly in a straight line.

Answer 17

true.
