Science Homework Due 9/22

Create a post on your blog.  In the body of the post, put the picture of the numbered rock layers from mrgreenscience.blogspot.com.  Then, in text, place the layers in order from newest to oldest.  Make sure to write about the logic for your placement.  Use the priciples of superposition, cross-cutting relationships, and embedded fragments.  For example, you could write "I know that layer 6 is older than layer 1 because of the principle of superposition."

I think this is the order for youngest to oldest in this strata: First I think that 2 is the youngest because of the cross-cutting then I would say 3  also because of the cross-cutting. I think that 4 would be next because it is also at the top and near the bottom which I think that would be called embedded fragments. I would say 1 goes then 6 because of superposition. I would say that 5 is the oldest because of superposition also.
