In what order do deposition weathering and erosion occur?
first the weathering happens which causes an erosion which makes deposition.
How does a uplift to the Earth's surface make sedimentary rock?
The uplifted surface is then subjected to weathering and erosion, resulting in the deposition, compaction, and cementation of sediments which creates sedimentary rock.
How can igneos rocks become sedimentary rocks?
Igneous rocks can become sedimentary rocks through weathering and erosion, deposition, compaction and cementation.
What processes can change igneous rock into sedimentary rocks?
Weathering, erosion, deposition, compaction, and cementation.
What are four stages in the formation of sedimentary rock in chronological order?
The four stages in the formation of sedimentary rock always proceed in the same order. This order is 1. Weathering of rocks, 2. Erosion by wind and water carry the products of weathering to a new place, 3. Compaction, 4. Cementation.
In what order do deposition weathering and erosion occur?
first the weathering happens which causes an erosion which makes deposition.
What are the cycles that occur in nature?
Cooling,Weathering,Erosion,Compaction,And Cementation.
How does a uplift to the Earth's surface make sedimentary rock?
The uplifted surface is then subjected to weathering and erosion, resulting in the deposition, compaction, and cementation of sediments which creates sedimentary rock.
What forces help to shape the Earth's surface?
Deposition,compaction,cementation,erosion,and weathering
What processes can change sedimentary rock into igneous. rock?
Weathering, erosion, deposition, compaction, and cementation.
What are the parts of the rock cycle?
weathering,erosion,deposition,compaction and cementation,metamorphism,melting,cooling and solidification.
Which process will change sedimentary rock into another sedimentary rock?
Weathering, erosion, deposition, compaction, and cementation.
What processes work together to form sedimentary rocks?
Weathering, Erosion, Deposition, Compaction, Cementation and Lithification.
What is the sequence of the lithification of a clastic rock?
Weathering and erosion from an existing rock, transportation and deposition, compaction and cementation.
How can a metamorphic rock can be transformed onto a sedimentary rock?
it can be changed by weathering, erosion, deposition, compaction, and cementation.
What represents the correct order of the processes involved in sedimentary rock formation?
weathering erosion deposition compaction/cementation
When igneous rocks are subjected to intense heat and pressure they become what type o rock?
A sedimentary rock is formed when an igneous rock is subjected to weathering, erosion, compaction, and cementation!
