Answer

Brief Explanations:

In geology, sedimentary rock layers are formed one on top of the other in a sequential order (younger layers on top of older ones). Faults and intrusions occur after the rock - layers they cut through are formed. Sedimentary rock layer 1 must be the first to form, followed by layer 2, then layer 3, and then layer 4. After all the sedimentary layers are formed, the igneous intrusion Q cuts through layers 2, 3, and 4. Finally, the fault P cuts through all the rock layers and the igneous intrusion Q.

Answer:

  1. Sedimentary rock layer 1 was formed.
  2. Sedimentary rock layer 2 was formed over sedimentary rock layer 1.
  3. Sedimentary rock layer 3 was formed over sedimentary rock layer 2.
  4. Sedimentary rock layer 4 was formed over sedimentary rock layer 3.
  5. Igneous intrusion Q was formed, and it cut through sedimentary rock layers 2, 3, and 4.
  6. Fault P was formed, and it cut through igneous intrusion Q and sedimentary rock layers 1, 2, 3, and 4.
