law of superposition
Shale is a sedimentary rock. In increasing metamorphism, the sequence begins with shale and leads to phyllite, schist, then gneiss.
A sediment deposited at the same time as rifting affected the depositional area
Erosion of exposed strata with subsequent sedimentation and stratification and folding of strata from horizontal forces or tilting.
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.
Younger than the layer below it.
Sedimentary rocks.
It is a valid sequence which is fundamental to arithmetic since its partial sums define the counting numbers.
a break in a sedimentary sequence that does not involves a difference of inclination between the strata on each side of the break

Just as the rings in a tree get older as you count towards the centre of the trunk, so layers of sedimentary rock are older the further down a sequence you look.
No. The name just implies it's a fundamental sequence of notes in music.
older than the one above it
superpostion
The sequences of sedimentary rocks in cratons are typically thin and are relatively undeformed or gently warped. The sequences in mountain belts, meanwhile, are thick and extensively folded and faulted.
A xenologue (also xenolog) is a gene sequence in which similar sequences can be found in different species, due to horizontal gene transfer.
