3. Correlate the three stratigraphic sections below and answer the questions. a. Use a ruler and pencil draw lines to correlate the three stratigraphic sections. Connect the contacts between the beds. Note that the units differ in thickness in each section. b. What happens to the conglomerate in section C? Why is it not present in section A or B? c. Why does the thickness of the sandstone change from section A to section B? d. In which direction (west or east) was the land?, e. In which direction (west or east) was deeper water? f. Label the right side of section C to illustrate a transgression, a regression, and the time of sea level low stand. g. Label the pinch-out with an arrow and the term "pinch-out."
