Respuesta :

False because shifts in rocks literally create gaps

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The shifting of the rock layers generally creates a gap in the total rock record, which is commonly known as an unconformity.

It generally describes the contact surface between the rock layers of two different ages.  

in simple terms, unconformity refers to the period of non-deposition in geological history. This usually takes place due to the weathering and erosion of rock layers as a result of which they disappear from the given sequence of rock.

Hence, the above statement is False.
