A) subsurface layers
B) orientation of rock layers
C) orientation of folds
D) faults

Question

While subsurface layers provide valuable information about the geology of an area, they cannot be directly observed or measured and therefore cannot be used to create geologic cross sections. The orientation of rock layers, folds, and faults, on the other hand, can be observed and measured and are essential to creating accurate geologic cross sections.
