Best Answer

stratification is the layering of sedimentary rocks. stratification occurs when the conditions of sediments deposition change. the conditions may vary when there is a change in sediment type or of depositional environment. an area that was once a beach to become as shallow ocean is cause by a rise in sea level.

stratified layers, or beds, vary in thickness depending on the length of time during which sediments is deposited. beds that has no internal structure is called massive bed.
