How can a sedimentary rock form a new sedimentary rock?
If the original rock is eroded or broken away and then returned to sedimentary-forming conditions, it will form another sedimentary.
How might a sedimentary rock become another sedimentary rock without first changing into another rock type?
A sedimentary rock can become another sedimentary rock through the process of diagenesis. This involves the compaction and cementation of existing sedimentary rocks to form a new rock without going through a different rock type. This can happen through the addition of more sediment layers or changes in environmental conditions.
Can sedimentary rock form directly from metamorphic rock?
Yes, sedimentary rock can form from metamorphic rock through a process called retrograde metamorphism. In this process, metamorphic rocks are broken down by weathering and erosion to form sediment, which can then be compacted and cemented to form new sedimentary rock.
What kinds of rock can form sedimentary rock?
anything can form sedimentary rock; it is caused by the erosion of sediment over time
Weathered rock materials are pressed and cemented to form?
That forms sedimentary rock.
What kind of rock can be broken into fragments that may later form sedimentary rock?
Any rock can be broken up and later form a sedimentary rock.
Chalk is an example of what kind of rock?
Chalk is a form of limestone, a sedimentary rock.
How can a sedimentary rock change into another sedimentary rock F.T.W.?
It can change when it is eroded and weathered.
Why are sedimantary rocks formed?
eroded rock (from igneous, metamorphic, or sedimentary) settled. they compact together to form a rock. the rock that they form is known as sedimentary rock
What is to shift from one form to another?
it's conversion
How does sedimentary rock form to metamorphic rock?
Shale (a metamorphic rock) goes through heat and pressure than it turns into slate (a sedimentary rock)
How does igneous rock change to sedimentary?
Sedimentary rock melts, then it cools to form Igneous rock. Hoped this helped. :)
