the compaction and heat under the layers of the Earth causes this process to occur
The rock layers will be easily visible.
The rock layers are subjected to many different types of forces. Some of them are:1. Weathering2. Climate change-torrential rainfall,scorching heat and freezing of water between the cracks formed in the rocks,etc.3.vibrations caused by the hoofs of different types of creatures
Sedimentary Rock is made up of layers of different rocks.
Molten Rock from with in earth can force its way up through the layers above it cooling and forming igneous rock.
Gaps in rock layers are called unconformities.
Unconformities. =)
Gaps in rock layers that develop when agents of erosion remove existing rock layers are known as unconformities.
Unconformities. =)
Angular unconformities separate rock layers along nonparallel surfaces
New rock layers are always deposited on top of existing rock layers. Therefore, deeper layers must be older than layers closer to the surface. This is the law of superposition.

Discontinuity surfaces (bedding planes and various types of unconformities), significant changes in mineralogy or grain size or changes in the types of fossils present in the rock may all help identify differing rock layers.
Unconformities occur when erosion wears away rock, or when rock deposits are never formed.
An unconformity is defined as a buried erosional or non-depositional surface separating two rock masses or strata of different ages, indicating that sediment deposition was not continuous. The different types of unconformities include disconformity, nonconformity, angular unconformity, paraconformity, buttress unconformity, blended unconformity, and biconformity.

If the same types of fossils are found in two separate rock layers, it's likely that the two rock layers ____.
