Answer

Brief Explanations:

The Law of Superposition states that in undisturbed sedimentary rock layers, the oldest layers are at the bottom and the layers above are younger. It helps in determining the relative age of rock - layers and fossils within them, not the exact or absolute age (which requires radiometric dating etc.).

Answer:

B. the relative age of layers of rocks and the fossils in them
