Take a moment to think about how the Colorado River has evolved through time. Focus on how changing base level and stream incision created landforms, such as incised meanders and rincons, and arrange these events accordingly.
-Oldest Event- A stream migrates laterally across its floodplain developing meanders. This stream terminates at a lake, which is its base level. The base level of the stream is lowered by crustal uplift and the river begins to incise downward. Incised meanders form. A rincon forms by the cutoff of an incised meander, which shortens the river. -Youngest Event-

Identifying the type of rock in an outcropping and seeing how it has deformed can help to determine the history of the surrounding area. There are three basic types of rock: igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic. Igneous rocks, such as granite, are directly formed from cooling magma. Sedimentary rocks, such as shale or limestone, are formed by layer upon layer of loose sediment, either from small bits of other inorganic rocks or the remains of living organic creatures, being deposited upon one another. Over time these sediments are turned to stone. Shales are formed by inorganic sedimentation, and limestones are comprised of organic materials. Metamorphic rocks, such as gneiss, slate, or marble, are any type of rock that has undergone extreme heat and pressure and has been transformed into a new type of rock. Gneiss can be formed from granite, slate is formed from shale, and marble is the metamorphic result of heat and pressure being applied to limestone. The outcropping that we are looking at is comprised of marble. Knowing what we know about the principles of geography, go through the statements below and put the events in chronological order from oldest to youngest. Rank the areas identified in the cross section from oldest to youngest.
-First- Formation of limestone in a shallow ocean Pressure and temperature transform limestone into marble Folding of rock Faulting of rock Erosion at the top of the outcrop where plants are growing -Last-
