What is the name of the process a geologist uses to match Cambrian rocks in one area with Cambrian rocks several kilometers away? A. sedimentation B. fossil correlation C. petrification D. faunal succession

The correct answer is: Option B. Fossil Correlation.

Fossil Correlation is a method used by geologists to determine the age of a layer of rock by using the known ages of a certain type of fossils (such as Cambrian rocks) covered in the same layer. This technique can be applied on any number of areas that containt the same type of fossil with the same layer of rock.

The correct answer is Fossil correlation:

Fossil correlation is a principle that geologists use to determine the age of the rock. They are seen in the surrounding rock fossils with unique characteristics, such as geologically short life cycle and easy to identify characteristics, and use this information to estimate the age of a rock layer in other areas that contain the same type of fossils or group of fossils.
