Answer :
![Page 264: sophiasapiens.chez.comsophiasapiens.chez.com/geologie/Introduction-to-Physica… · Web viewtheory of superstition . Answer: C . 10) What of the following refers to the investigative](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042800/5a7830af7f8b9aa3618e8d1f/html5/thumbnails/264.jpg)
The sedimentary layers are deposited on top of the granite (principle of superposition). Also, inclusions of the granite in the sedimentary layer indicate that the granite is older using the principle of inclusions.
