What layer is sedimentary rock in?
sedimentary layer ㅡㅡ
What do geologists call a single layer of sedimentary rock?
A single layer of sedimentary rock is called a "bed." Beds can vary in thickness and can be identified based on their distinct characteristics such as composition and sedimentary structures.
Where is the youngest layer of sedimentary rock found?
The youngest layer of sedimentary rock is typically found at the top of a sedimentary rock sequence, as it is the most recently deposited layer. This layer is usually exposed on the Earth's surface, such as in river valleys or coastal areas, where erosion may have removed older layers above it.
What feature is formed when a sedimentary rock layer overlies a nonsedimentary rock layer?
Unconformity
What is the makeup of the youngest layer of sedimentary rock?
Clay
What sedimentary rock is formed from thin layer of clay compacted very tightly together?

What are rocks that form layer by layer over many years called?

How do you use sedimentary in a sentence?
Sedimentary means formed of sediment. Here are some sentences.The sedimentary rock had worn away, revealing the layer beneath.You can often find fossils in sedimentary layers.We studied the sedimentary process in geology.
How do you use lava to learn about the ages of sedimentary rock?
It is fairly easy to determine the age of lava or volcanic ash using radiometric dating, but much harder with sedimentary rock. But, if a layer of sedimentary rock is in between two layers of volcanic rock, then we know if had to have formed after the first layer and before the second one. If we know how old the volcanic layers are, then we have a general idea of how old the sedimentary layer is as well.
