The correct option is D.
In geology, relative age dating refers to the science of determining the relative order of past events in rock formation without necessarily determining the absolute age of the rocks. The five principles that are used in relative age dating are: original horizontality, superposition, lateral continuity, crosscutting relationship and inclusions.
The principle of superposition states that, when rocks are undistributed, oldest rocks will be at the bottom and the youngest rocks will be at the top.
