JWhich type of geologic event has to occur to create an angular conformity?

folding or tilting of rock layers, followed by renewed deposition

sediment deposited on older, eroded igneous rock

igneous intrusion into layered rock

uninterrupted deposition of sediment

1 answer

An angular conformity is formed when there is a period of folding or tilting of rock layers, followed by renewed deposition. This geological event involves the deformation of existing rock layers, which are then eroded, and new sediments are deposited on top at an angle to the original layer. Therefore, the correct answer is:

folding or tilting of rock layers, followed by renewed deposition.
