Does lithification begin with erosion?

No, lithification is the process by which sediments are compacted and cemented into rock. Erosion is the process by which rocks and sediments are broken down and carried away. Erosion typically occurs before lithification begins.


The process of loosening and removing rock and sediments?

This process is called erosion, which involves the wearing away of rock and sediments by natural forces such as water, wind, and ice. Erosion can result in the transport of these materials to new locations, shaping the landscape over time.


What is the process by which wind picks up sediments?

Its a type of erosion, specifically Abrasion, which is a material weathering away at a soild (the rock), and since the wind carries it away, it is Erosion.

What Sediments are transported or moved from the original source by a process called?

Erosion transports sediments from the original source through processes like wind, water, or ice. As the sediments are eroded, they are carried away and eventually deposited in a new location, forming sedimentary deposits.


What is he process that sediments are GLUED together?

The process by which sediments are glued together to form sedimentary rocks is called lithification. It involves the compaction and cementation of sediments over time, due to the pressure of overlying layers and the precipitation of minerals in the pore spaces of the sediments, binding them together into a solid rock.


What is the process of pressing sediments called?

The process of pressing sediments together to form solid rock is called compaction. It occurs when layers of sediment accumulate on top of each other, with the weight of the overlying layers causing the sediments to be pressed tightly together.


Which organ carrys blood away from the heart?

its not an organ- the arteries carry blood away form the heart and veins carry the blood to the heart.


What is the natural process whereby layers of mud and sand wore away and expose the dinosaur bones at the dinosaur National Monument?

The processes of weathering and erosion, which were caused by wind, ice, and water, are responsible for exposing the dinosaur fossils at Dinosaur National Monument. Weathering is the process of rock being broken into sediments. Erosion is when those sediments are carried away by wind and water.
