falling in water
Pressure.
The surface of igneous rock is broken down over time through erosion processes into smaller particles and eventually sediment, it can be through different erosion processes such as water erosion. Sedimentary rock is formed through layers and layers of sediment being deposited upon each other and the resulting pressure eventually compresses into sedimentary rock over millions of years.
they are called layers
Rock layers are different and unique to each other due to the fact that each layer represents a time period. They are formed when rock, sediment, and minerals settle into one place for a long time and harden when another layer goes over it. Reading rock layers allow geologists to determine how much time has passed. They even sometimes tell of the history of the earth and all of the disasters that have occurred in each era.
Layers of ice in a glacier or permanent ice pack form a sort of history. Snow falls on top of older layers of snow, and as it builds up the snow at the bottom gets compressed into ice. The gases in each layer represent the composition of the air at the time
because the earth as it builds up over time new layers formed from the techtonic plates each layer probobly has their own plates but not discovered yet and when convergent bounderies made mountains and more land, the earth made new layers that were capable of living on
Layers of sediment are piled on top of each other, and the top layers compress the lower layers into rock.
Layers that cut across the most other features are the youngest. (apex)

There are to ways sedimentary rock is formed. One way is compaction; which is when layers of sediment are squished together to form rocks. The latter is cementition: which is when large sediment particles are laid on top of each other meanwhile trapping smaller sediment in between the larger ones thus cementing them together to form rocks

1- why should alternate layers be laid at 90 degrees to each other?
wet ice causes ice layers to slide over each other
Because there different kind of layers and they each are totally different from each other!

There is no interaction of ozone layer with other layers. All of them are independent of each other.
geothermal pressue
Yes, it is true. Sediments get blown together by wind, and then layer on top of each other. Over time, there's lots of pressure, and the lower sediments become sedimentary rocks.
