What else can I help you with?
What kind of sedimentary rocks are formed when sediments are deposited in layers at the bottoms of lakes and oceans?
sedimentary rock formed by weathering and erosion
What kind of rocks would you find fossils in and why?
Fossils are found in sedimentary rock because it is layers of sand, rock, and sediments, and the bones fall between the layers where the form into fossil's.
What kind of rock is formed form sediments?
Sedimentary rock.
What kind of rock is formed from rocks sediments?
Sedimentary rock.
What kind of rocks form layers?
sedimentary
What kind of rocks is formed from sediments deposited in bodies of water?
Sedimentary rock
What kind of rocks we can consider as sedimentary rocks-?
Slate (compressed silt and mud); Sandstone (compressed sand grains); and limestone (the skeleton remains of microscopic shelled creatures).
What kind of sediments consist primarily of minerals grains that were eroded from rocks on land?
hydrates
What kind of rocks do not have layers?
Igneous rocks, such as granite and basalt, typically do not have layers because they form from the solidification of molten rock without the presence of bedding or foliation. These rocks cool and solidify quickly, preventing the development of distinct layers.
What kind of rock is made up of layers?
Sedimentary Rock is made up of layers of different rocks.
Erosion and deposition play roles in the formation of what kind of rock?
Erosion and deposition play important roles in the formation of sedimentary rock. Erosion breaks down rocks into sediments which are then transported and deposited in layers. Over time, these sediments are compacted and cemented together to form sedimentary rocks.
How can sedimentary and igneous rocks be formed in to metamorphic rocks?
No matter what kinds of rocks they are they can be changed into any other kind of rock. Sedimentary rocks and igneous rocks can become metamorphic rocks with either contact or regional metamorphism. This means that either the rocks have been in contact with or close to high heat and high pressure that changes the rock.
