B. | @Americanwoman You seem to be asking so many rather basic geology questions... maybe you should get a book on geology instead of just trying to learn it one Stack Exchange question at a time, it sounds like you might enjoy it. By the way, it seems that what you say about layers being the same in different areas is basically true and in fact an important principle in geology, but it also depends what was deposited in different areas, e.g. if a layer is made from the sediments from the botton of an ancient lake, it will appear only in the area where that lake once was. | |
Feb 13, 2023 at 21:37 | comment | added | American woman | Ok if that's the case ... Then the layers should be the same in surrounding areas correct? And how were the layers not mixed up in the massive earth quakes it must have taken to uplift them? And why aren't sediment layers so drastically different any where else? Why aren't the patterns of colors the same ..in the same order of it was all one set of layers? | |
