Superposition and cross cutting are both things that the Grand Canyon experience. The tectonic plates move, causing it to split. That's why it is the way it is today.
Superposition is the deposition of one geological rock on another. Cross cutting is when the rock splits, just like when humans cut rock to make, for example, jewelry or sculptures. Take limestone for example. I watched an episode of "Dirty Jobs" when they were working in a limestone mine to cut slabs of rock for things like counter-tops.
