Due right the image shows cross-cutting relationships. b, w, e, and k represent rock layers, and q represents a fault. which statement describes the geologic features? 1. layer k is the oldest. 2. layer w is the youngest. 3. fault q occurred before layer k was deposited. 4. layers b, w, and e were deposited after fault q occurred.

The best answer would be option 3:

Fault Q occurred before layer K was deposited.

If you'd like to know why:

As you can see in the diagram, fault Q does not cross layer K. It stops right under it, so this means that the fault occurred first, then over a span of time, layer K was deposited.

To rule out the rest:

The oldest layer is the one at the bottom so that should be Layer B.

The youngest should be the top-most layer, unless a fault or an intrusion cuts through it, so Layer K is the youngest.

The last option is wrong because fault Q cuts through all those layers, which means it happened after those layers were formed.  

3. Fault Q occurred before layer K was deposited.3. Fault Q occurred before layer K was deposited.

As seen through the picture, layer K is still complete (not cut into two pieces). This means that Layer K was deposited after Fault Q.

the answer is: trichonympha lives in the gut of termites and digests cellulose eaten by the termite.

this is an example of a symbiotic association of a protozoan with its mode of association.
