What do the law of superposition and the law of inclusion have in common?
1 answer
The law of superposition and the law of inclusion both describe the relative age of rocks and other geological features. The law of superposition states that in an undeformed sequence of sedimentary rocks, each bed is older than the one above it and younger than the one below it. The law of inclusion states that any rock fragment included in another rock must be older than the rock that contains it.
