A sedimentary rock formed when rock fragments are squeezed together is called a?
clastic rock
How do the rock fragments formed by weathering become rounded grains?
Sedimentary rocks are formed from the rock fragments that are made when a rock is eroed. Theese rock fragments are transported (carried away) from the rock face, usually by streams or rivers. As they are transported by the water, the rock fragments knock against each other and wear away. When they become very small they are called grains
What is it called when a rocks particles come of and make another rock from the particles?
Sedimentary rocks are formed from the fragments of other rocks
What is sedimentary rock formed by shells?
Limestone can be formed partly or mostly by visible shell fragments. .

What rock can be broken into fragments that may later form sedimentary rock?
Any rock (igneous, sedimentary or metamorphic) may be broken into fragments that may later be formed into sedimentary rock.
What are examples of rock fragments?
Fragmental sedimentary rocks are formed from rock fragments, such as sand, gravel or clay. These fragments become cemented together because of pressure and other chemical reactions.
