What is the formation of sedimentary rock?
the formation of a sedimentary rock is first weathering. Weathering breaks into smaller piece's. Next is erosion. Erosion is when it moves the sediment to different places. Deposition after that and what deposition do is forming a sedimentary rock when it rains, snow ect. It slows the rock formation down and less energy and sediment will be on the sedimentary rock. Last it is compaction. and that squeezs the sedimentary rock together
Erosion and deposition play roles in the formation of what kind of rock?
Erosion and deposition may eventually result in the formation of sedimentary rock.
