Multiple Choice

B) both regions have roughly the same amount of cratering because they have approximately the same age.
C) the older region has 16% more craters than the younger region because its age is 16% greater than that of the younger region.
D) the older region has far more craters than the younger region because of changes in the cratering rate over that time.
