fragments
The movement of rock fragments is called erosion.
Grains: Grains that are not crystals in rock do not have flat shiny faces. They are rounded, like grain of sand, or jagged, like a piece of broken rock. Grain Size: Grain size in rocks can mean the size of crystal grains or of fragments: Coarse Grained: most of the rock is made of grains as largeas rice, or larger.
Clastic Rock- a sedimentary rock forms when rock fragments are squeezed together.
Weathered rock fragments are known as sediment.

Weathered rock fragments are known as sediment.
A Clastic sedimentary rock forms when fragments of preexisting rocks are compacted or cemented together. A Bioclastic rock is a clastic rock but the fragments are not of preexisting rock but of organic shell and or bone fragments.
A conglomerate, classified by rounded rock fragments larger than 2cm compacted and cemented into a rock.
Gravity pulls at the rock fragments causing them to move.
fragments of rock dust ash steam and gases
A clastic rock.
