The diagram above shows several rocklayers another geological features. Each feature is labeled with a unique letter. The order of the letters do not necessarily reflect the order in which the features formed exam in the diagram, and answer the question that follows using the principles of original horizontal Lee, supers position, and crosscutting relationships determine which of the following features is the youngest N, G, R, H.

Answer 1

To determine the youngest geological feature from the options N, G, R, and H, we can apply the principles you've mentioned:

1. Original Horizontality: Sedimentary layers are deposited in horizontal layers. Any tilting or folding must have occurred after the deposition.

2. Superposition: In an undeformed sequence of sedimentary rocks, the oldest layers are at the bottom and the youngest are at the top.

3. Crosscutting Relationships: If one geological feature cuts through another, the feature that has been cut is older than the feature doing the cutting.

To identify the youngest feature:

• Check which layer or feature is disrupted by another, as the disruption indicates that the former is older.
• Also consider the vertical position of any layers to see which might be on top, as this could also indicate relative age.

Given that we don't have the actual diagram, you would need to apply these principles to the specific features labeled N, G, R, and H to find the one that is the youngest. Look for the feature that either:

• Appears to have formed last (e.g., it could be a fault, intrusion, etc. that cuts through the others)
• Is situated above the others (in terms of layering) as per the principle of superposition.

In geological diagrams, features such as faults or igneous intrusions are typically younger because they disrupt the existing rock layers. Thus, you would select the feature N, G, R, or H based on the relationships and positioning that you can observe in the diagram.
