Stratification
Sedimentary rocks are composed of layers, and show how layers have built up over time. Hope this helps!
Sedimentary rocks preserve a record of the environments that existed when they formed.
The presence of layers is the universal feature of all sedimentary rock.
Sedimentary rock. It forms when layers of sediment pile up.
Sedimentary Rock is made up of layers of different rocks.
Sedimentary rocks are the type of rocks that are mostly arranged in layers. The way in which the layers are arranged is commonly called bedding.
stratification
Factors such as wind, ice, and warder contribute to sedimentary build up. As this occurs older layers of sedimentary rock are driven lower while newer layers replace them closer to the surface.
Strata refers to distinct layers or divisions within a rock formation or other material. Stratification refers to the process of arranging or forming these layers. In essence, strata are the actual layers, while stratification is the process of layering.
The layers in sedimentary rocks are called strata.
In geology, the law of superposition states that in any undisturbed sequence of rocks that are deposited in layers, the oldest layers are on the bottom. Each layer is younger than the layer below it.
Sedimentary rocks have layers, not metamorphic rocks.
Sedimentary rocks are formed by the accumulation of sediments.
Sedimentary rocks, and foliated metamorphic rocks form in layers.
sedimentary rock
Sedimentary rock, like limestone, is formed in layers.
Sedimentary rocks. An example is sandstone.
