1. The Law of Superposition states that in horizontal layers of sedimentary rock, each layer is older than the layer above it and younger than the layer below it.
2. The Law of Cross-Cutting states that a fault or intrusion of rock is younger than the formation that it cuts through.
3. The theory of continental drift is the idea that the continents have slowly moved over time on Earth's surface.
4. Fossils found on more than one continent which are separated by the ocean serve as a piece of evidence supporting continental drift.
5. Relative age is the age of an organism or rock formation compared to the age of another organism or rock formation.
6. Absolute age is the age of a fossil, geologic event, or structure expressed in years.
Order the layers in the image from OLDEST TO YOUNGEST by dragging and dropping the layers (in the yellow boxes below the image) onto the numbered lines below with 1 representing the OLDEST layer@and 5 representing the
YOUNGEST layer
Layer A
Layer B
Laver C
Laver D (intrusion) Layer E
Based on the given information, the order of the layers from oldest to youngest would be:

1. Layer A
2. Layer B
3. Layer D (intrusion)
4. Layer C
5. Layer E
Order the layers in the image from OLDEST TO YOUNGEST by dragging and dropping the layers (in the yellow boxes below the image) onto the numbered lines below with 1 representing the OLDEST layer@and 5 representing the
YOUNGEST layer
Layer A
Layer B

Apologies, but as an AI text-based model, I am unable to see or interact with images. Please provide the information in text format, and I'll be glad to assist you with ordering the layers from oldest to youngest.
