Question

if a sequence of 5 rock layers are all broken and divided by a fault, this tells us: the relative age of those disturbed layers is impossible to determine the fault is younger than the rock layers the rock layers are younger than the fault this area is volcanically active

Explanation:

The principle of cross - cutting relationships in geology states that a fault (a fracture or discontinuity in a rock formation) is younger than the rocks it cuts through. If a sequence of rock layers is broken by a fault, the fault must have occurred after the rock layers were formed.

Answer:

The fault is younger than the rock layers
