Question

Order the following events from oldest (4) to youngest (1). NUMBER THEM

- Transitional period from terrestrial to shallow marine in which clam-like and other marine fossils, such as corrals, were deposited.

- During this time, mafic to silicic intrusive and extrusive volcanic rocks were deposited. These rocks were buried and metamorphosed and eventually uplifted and eroded.

- Terrestrial (land) environment, as indicated by conglomerates and Quaternary fluvial sands. During this time period there was also volcanic activity that formed basalt flows.

- During this time period sea level regressed, allowing the deposition of terrestrial red beds.
