They indicate a depositional event.
Cross-bedding refers to inclined layers in sedimentary rock that were formed as a result of wind or water driven ripples or dunes in the original depositional environment.

The deep ocean floor and submarine sand reefs are all made up of limestone environment. Limestone is a sedimentary type of rock that can be found in many places. It falls to the ocean floor when tides rise and fall.
Yes, sedimentary rocks can contain bands or layers of minerals. These bands are often formed through various processes such as sediment deposition, compaction, and cementation. The minerals within these bands can vary in composition and can provide valuable information about the depositional environment and the history of the rock.

Sedimentary depositional environment
depositional environments is the place or setting in which sediments is deposited. oceans, rivers, deltas, and beaches are all common depositional. each of the depositional environment has different characteristics that create specific structure in sedimentary rock.
An sedimentary enviorment is when all the rain rains in a puddle and all the rocks settle and a sedimentary enviorment develops/forms. This is my thinking/opinion.
A chemical sedimentary rock. Evaporites are formed in this depositional environment. Salts, carbonates, and sulfates mostly. Halite, sylvite, calcite, gypsum, etc.

Sedimentary rock is formed generally at low temperature and pressure conditions.Therefore a change in this conditions to higher levels triggers mineralogical change.The driving forces for metamorphism are changes in temperature, pressure, and composition of the environment or strong deformation.These changes cause recrystallization in the solid state as the rock changes toward equilibrium with the new environment.Hence, formation of metamorphic rocks.

By applying increasing pressures or temperatures which cause mineralogical and structural changes to the rock.
