  Scientists study layers of rocks to learn about the earth and how it has changed. They know that if layers are undisturbed, the oldest rocks are on the bottom and the yo â¦ ungest rocks are on top.They know how old each layer is in relation to the other layers.+ 12 others found this useful.

1) Layering (bedding). One of the most obvious features of sedimentary rocks and sediment is the layered structure which they exhibit. The layers are evident because of differences in mineralogy, clast size, degree of sorting, or color of the different layers.he final texture (grain size, shape, sorting, mineralolgy, etc.) in a sediment or sedimentary rocks is dependent on process that occur during each stage. The points below summarize the basic factors affecting rock texture.
