Answer: B

Why: because History is the study of past events, so it makes sense to find the oldest rocks in the area, because the older that things are, the most history that they have.

A would not be correct because patterns are not history.

C would not be correct because current features are not history, that is observing things in the present.

D would not be correct because shape has nothing to do with history.
