Rocks are classified into three groups based on how they are formed. Igneous rock is formed when magma cools and crystallizes. Sedimentary rock is formed when the products of weathering and erosion are compacted and cemented to form new rock. Metamorphic rock is formed when existing rock is changed by heat, pressure or chemical change into a new kind of rock.
It can be. Limestone can be derived from precipitating minerals, in which case it is a chemical sedimentary rock. It can also be formed from the remains of marine organisms, in which case it is described as a bioclastic sedimentary rock, a form of detrital rock.

Yes. Sandstone is considered as a clastic sedimentary rock because it is formed from small particles of weathered and eroded rocks from various sources.
Any rock can become a metamorphic rock. To become a metamorphic rock the rock must undergo heat and/or pressure, but not so much that the rock melts. Should the rock melt it would become an igneous rock.
No that is how igneous rocks are formed

There's an example of some beautiful sedimentary rock a little farther down the gorge.

a metamorphic rock is one which is formed from transforming pre existing rocks

Sandstone is one possible form.
Limestone and sandstone. The rock needs to be one that's formed from sedimentation around the dead animal.
there are 4 bill bob and jerry and the one in abi's head she likes to call a brain Igneous, Sedimentary, and Metamorphic.
