A scentist finds a rock with fossils at two different levels what she might conclude that the fossils on the bottom are older than the fossils at the top?

The fossil on the bottom would be older because as time goes on rock builds up and buries fossils so the higher it is the more recent it is.

Why would fossils found at the top of a canyon probably be younger than those found at the bottom of the canyon?
The fossils found at the top of a canyon will probably be younger than those at the of the bottom of the canyon because the fossils at the bottom of the canyon would have been there earlier when the so called "canyon" was once a flat land, so as time went by, the flat land began growing and getting taller and finally became a canyon so the fossils at the top of the canyon WOULD be younger than those at the bottom because the bottom fossils were there before the top of the canton even existed.

Dating technique involving compraring fossils in rock layers?
Relative dating-comparing fossils related to how old other fossils are in the same sample of rock. If the rock has been undisturbed, the oldest rock will be at the bottom, therefore, the oldest fossils will also be at the bottom. the youngest rock will be at the top, therefore, the youngest fossils will be at the top. Absolute Dating-When you can figure out through testing the exact age of the fossil
