sentence1: Law of superposition states that during the formation of sedimentary rocks, each layer is older than the one above and younger than the one below---this statement reflects the relative age of sedimentary rocks.

sentence2: The law of superposition is best described by: in undisturbed layers of sedimentary rock, the lowest layers contain the older rocks.
