Yes simple as that.
no
it is true
It doesn't. The grain size effects the texture. If a rock has a small grain size, it will have a smooth texture. If the grain size is large, such as pebbles, the texture will be rough. For example, siltstone is one of the smoothest rocks because it contains silt particles, which are .0004cm to .006cm. Conglomerate though contains various particles including cobbles and boulders, which are from 10cm to 100cm.
Sediment sorting-Range of particle sizes layering- stratification of sediments and rocks texture- grain size grain Roundness- loss of edges on sediment grains (just took the Quiz of apex!)
mineral composition is the minerals that the rocks are made of texture refers to the grain size (sediments or interlocking crystals) of the different components of that rock
no
The grains of constituent compounds and their grain size.

Rocks can be made of assemblages of different minerals whose crystals may be of varying size. This variation in composition and grain size results in a plethora of rock types of different density, color, texture and fabric.

Philosophy and elephants are NOT texture in rocks.
Two kinds of rocks that have a pyroclastic texture are breccia and tuffs. Some other rocks with this texture are volcanic ash and pumice.
