The picture shows a conglomerate rock formed of cemented rock fragments according to the law of inclusion which is younger the rock fragments or the cemented rock around the fragments why?
According to the law of inclusion, the rock fragments are older than the cemented rock around them. This is because the law of inclusion states that in a sequence of undisturbed rock layers, any rock fragment included within another rock must be older than the rock in which it is included.
In this case, the rock fragments would have been deposited or formed first, either through erosion or fragmentation of existing rocks. Later, the cemented rock material, which may include sedimentary particles like sand or clay, would have been deposited and subsequently hardened to form the conglomerate rock.
Therefore, the cemented rock material, including the matrix and surrounding the rock fragments, would be younger than the rock fragments themselves.
