What type of rock forms from layers of sediment?
Sedimentary rock.
What are the ingredients in sedimentary rocks?
The ingredients in a sedimentary rock is sand and sediment because thats what forms it.
What is a rock made of layers of sediment that have fused together?
it forms a sedimentary rock
How can sedimentary rock becomes a metamorphic rock?
When the metamorphic rock breaks down into sediment. Thus, making the new rock sedimentary because when sediment forms together over time it makes it sedimentary rock
Does oil form in sedimentary rocks?
Yes. Oil forms in sedimentary rock from organic material that settle with the original sediment.
What forms as weather and erosion break down rock?
Sediment forms which may ultimately be deposited and lithify into sedimentary rock.
What rock forms from sediment that gets compacted and cemented together over time?
sedimentary rock
What rocks are usually found with layers?
Sedimentary rock. It forms when layers of sediment pile up.
How sedimentary rocks form from sediments?
sediment gathers up then the water in the sediment starts to evaporate. Compaction and Cementation happens then forms layer after layer.
Constant movement of water or wind over soft sediment forms what marks on sedimentary rocks?
Ripples.
What forms when sediment is compressed?
When sediment is compressed over time, it forms sedimentary rock. This process, known as lithification, involves the compaction of sediment layers and the cementation of particles by minerals precipitating from water. As pressure increases, the sediment grains are forced closer together, leading to the formation of solid rock structures. Common examples of sedimentary rocks include sandstone, limestone, and shale.
How are sedimentary formed?
when the bits of the rocks get deposited it forms layers after many years these layers of sediment gets cementated which means gets squashed and compacted which means gets glued and they forms in to sedimentary rocks.thanks for reading
