Being aware of the geological characteristics of an area can help individuals make informed decisions about where to build homes and how to prepare for potential geological hazards. In summary, the formation of stratified rocks involves the accumulation, transportation, deposition, lithification, and layering of sediments, with each layer representing a distinct point in Earth's history. The study of these rock layers is essential for understanding the planet's past and the processes that have shaped its surface
