Rock Layers & Relative Dating

Science · Dinosaurs & Paleontology · conceptual

Understand that rock layers (strata) form in sequence with the oldest at the bottom and the youngest at the top, and that fossils found in deeper layers are older — this is the principle of relative dating

Sign in to track this

What mastery looks like

  • Explain that sedimentary rock forms in layers with the oldest at the bottom
  • Use a diagram of rock strata to determine which fossil is older based on its position
  • Define relative dating as working out the age of something by comparing its position in rock layers

Check your understanding

If Rock Layers & Relative Dating saw a cliff with layers of rock, could they explain that the bottom layers are the oldest and that fossils found deeper down lived longer ago?
