Examples would be: limestone, chalj, dolostone, sandstone, conglomerate and some types of shale.
Because it was originally a sediment, such as sand or mud, but was then lithified into a rock.
Igneous rock can become sedimentary if it is weathered into sediment and then lithified.
At this point they are none of the above. They are sediment. If lithified they will form sedimentary rock.
It can be changed by being broken down in the weathering process just like all rocks. The resulting sediment can then be lithified to for a sedimentary rock.
Organic sedimentary rock is derived mostly from the remains of organisms which have lithified into rock. Examples would be coal and chalk.
Sedimentary rock can be formed from lithified sediments.
the sediment is loosened
Clastic sedimentary rock.
When rock sediment is lithified, a sedimentary rock is formed. The two processes involved in lithification are compaction and cementation.
Lithification refers to the process of turning sediments into rock. The 2 processes that cause sediment to be lithified into solid sedimentary rock are compaction and cementation.
No coral is NOT sediment. Coral SAND is a sediment but the coral itself is a living organism - if buried and lithified, the coral becomes a fossil.
Because it was originally a sediment, such as sand or mud, but was then lithified into a rock.
Igneous rock can become sedimentary if it is weathered into sediment and then lithified.
Some examples of sediment are dirt, sand, and rocks.
At this point they are none of the above. They are sediment. If lithified they will form sedimentary rock.
Lithified means "to turn to stone", in other words, turning a sediment into a rock.
It can be changed by being broken down in the weathering process just like all rocks. The resulting sediment can then be lithified to for a sedimentary rock.
