The accompanying image shows alternating beds of immature sandstone with graded bedding and dark, silty shale of Cretaceous age, cropping out along the California coast at Sand Pedro Point. Based on this information, which of the following statements is CORRECT? (use figure \( 5.3 \) in your lab manual to answer this question) The association was deposited at the abyssal plain. The association was deposited in a deep marine environment at the trench. The source region for the given association was a rapidly uplifted area. The association was deposited in a shallow marine environment. Figure \( 5.3 \) Diagram showing major tectonic settings (top) and a chart indicating associations of beds that are typical of these settings (hottom). Numbers on top diagram refer to the different associations. Also refer to Table \( 4.1 \).
