The process is called compaction and that is when the mineral grains are pressed together but have pore spaces in between and hot fluids can pass through. Cementation is when they are fully glued on and there aren't any pore spaces.

Process by which sediments are pressed together to form rock?
Compaction
When sediments of living things are pressed together you are left with what?
Sedimentary Rocks are formed when sediments and pressed and cemented together. It is also formed from minerals that are left after a solution is evaporated.
What is he process that sediments are GLUED together?
the process when sediments are glued together is called sedimentation
They type of sedimentary rock that forms when sediments stick together?
Detrital sedimentary rock. clastic sedimentary A+
What is the process of pressing sediments called?
The process of pressing sediments is called compaction. The process that results in the layers being stuck together is called cementation.

What is the prossess where grains are pressed together by the weight of sediments above?
The process where grains are pressed together by the weight of sediments above is called compaction. It is one of the processes of lithification.

When layers of sediments are pressed together form.?
Igneous rock
What type of rock forms when sediments are deposited and pressed together?
Sedimentary Rocks.
What type of rock forms when sediments become pressed together?
Sedimentary Rocks.

What is the process which sedimentary rock is in layers?
OK, first the sediments are deposited then they under go cementation (being ''glued together'' by minerals that are left after evaporation) or it can go through compaction ( pressed together). And that is really all that happens.
What is the process where sediments are glued together by minerals?
Cementation
