The law of original lateral continuity states sedimentary material extends laterally in all directions. This extension continues until it is terminated against the edges of their original basin of deposition.

Lateral continuity refers to the idea that layers of sedimentary rock extend laterally in all directions until they either thin out or encounter a barrier. This concept helps geologists infer the original extent of rock layers that may have been eroded or faulted. It is important for understanding the spatial distribution and connectivity of rock units in geological formations.
well gentle people, Lateral continuity is When layers of sediment are formed, they expanded horizontally and then break, and im only a kid,
got beef dawgs
The principal of lateral continuity is when it makes a gap. The gap is caused by erosion.
Ohms not current (amps) indicate continuity. If you have no continuity then you will read an open line condition (OL on meters). If you have continuity you will have some type of resistance reading in ohms. 0 ohms would indicate continuity 0 amps indicates no current flow.
Stratigraphy is the study of rock layers and layering. There are two different principles of stratigraphy. The first principle is the principle of the original horizontality. The second is the principle of lateral continuity.
