A. Erosion

I saw the answer

This will occur

It will break away that sediment and leave a gap in the rock record (unconformity)

Good afternoon. Your answer will be A - Erosion because it has been eroded away by wind, water, etc and be taken to another location. This will not allow it to be shown in the rock record. Hope this helps!! Have a great day.
