Are sedimentary rocks made when molten lava cools?
is a sedimentary rock created when lava hardens
Is lava a metamorphic rock?
no lava is a liquid that when cooled forms extrusive igneous rock Metamorphic rock is something that has been "metamorphosed" usually by being shoved down into the high temperatures and pressures inside the earth by tectonic plate movement. Sandstone (soft) can become granite (hard) in this way.
Are magma and lava sedimentary rocks?
No. Magma and lava are molten rock. When the cool they form igneous rock.
When lava cools does it become sedimentary rock?
No. It becomes igneous rock.
When lava cools down does it turn into coal?

How can a metamorphic rock turn into sedimentary rock and then back to metamorphic?
metamorphic rock melts turns into lava,lava cools turns into igneous rock,igneous rock is weathered and eroded into sediment,sediment turns into sedimentary rocksedimentary rock gets heated and squeezed forms metamorphic rockcycle continues.......
Why are fossils found mostly in a sedimentary rock?
Because when the lava killed the animals, their remains stayed in the lava and dried to become sedimentary rock.
Where does sedimentary rock came from?
from volcanoes lava
Is sedimentary rock formed by lava?
no that is igneus
What type of rocks cannot turn into sedimentary rocks?

How does a vein enter a rock?
Liquid rock (magma, lava) condenses around a per-existing thing - OR sediments turn into sedimentary stone around an object.
