It is called subsidence.
The layers of any sedimentary rock are called strata.
I think the answer you are looking for is bedrock. Hope I helped.. If I did, your welcome :)
A fold where the youngest rock layers are in the center is called an anticline. In an anticline, the rock layers are folded upwards, creating a convex shape with the oldest layers on the outside and the youngest layers in the center.
This is known as a syncline. Please see the related link.
Compaction.
The sinking of rock layers, known as subsidence, occurs when the Earth's crust shifts or compacts, causing the rocks above to move downward. This can lead to the formation of basins and depressions in the Earth's surface. Subsidence can be triggered by factors such as tectonic activity, groundwater extraction, or the collapse of underground mines.
The layers of rock form a dome called a laccolith
The layers of any sedimentary rock are called strata.
When rock layers form parallel to each other, it is called stratification. This process occurs when sediments settle and accumulate in horizontal layers over time, resulting in distinct bands or layers of rock.

If the downfold is the syncline, then the upfold is the anticline i think.
