What type of sedimentary rock is formed from larger settled particles such as pebbles and gravel?
Rounded pebbles: conglomerate. Angular gravel: breccia.
How is age of pebbles within a conglomerate related to the age of the conglomerate?
The pebbles are older because the conglomerate could not form without the pebbles.
What are rocks that are made up of pebbles cemented together with other sediments?
If the pebbles are rounded, then the rock is a conglomerate. If the pebbles have sharper edges, the the rock is a breccia. Both are types of sedimentary rock.
