principle of superposition
The oldest layers of undisturbed sediment are at the bottom.
the way geologist know that rock layers are undisturbed is the rock layers are folded
You can tell the age of the layers. The bottom layer is the oldest and the top is the youngest. When the layers are disturbed they tend to get bent and messed up and you cannot tell the age
The principle of superposition states that in an undisturbed sequence of rock layers, the youngest will be at the top, the oldest at the bottom.
In geology, the law of superposition states that in any undisturbed sequence of rocks that are deposited in layers, the oldest layers are on the bottom. Each layer is younger than the layer below it.
The oldest layers of undisturbed sediment are at the bottom.
The undisturbed rock layers are horizontal and in order of age from youngest nearest the surface to oldest at the bottom of the rock unit.
In an undisturbed strata, the oldest layers are at the bottom. It's called the law or principle of superposition.
It is called Superposition.

principle of superposition
The rock layers will be easily visible.
According to the Law of Superposition, any sequence of rocks in layers, undisturbed, youngest on top, oldest at bottom
