QUESTION 3.

The law of superposition (rock position) in based that the bottom layer had to laid down first, and because of that the bottom layer must be older. The law of inclusion (rock inclusion) are used for the determination of the age of the rocks that are embedded in the geological structure, being both about the relative age of the rocks. Therefore, the options that shows the common point between the two laws is d. Both laws describes the relative age of rocks.
