sedimentary
When sedimentary rocks are weathered and eroded, they turn into sediments. And after compaction and cementation of the sediments, it will turn back into sedimentary rock.
When sedimentary rock is weathered in nature by chemical or mechanical means, the particles that are produced can be eroded and deposited, becoming sediments.
sedimentary rock
When a sedimentary rock is weathered or eroded, it becomes sediments, or small pieces of rock. Then the sediments are compacted together and they are formed into a new sedimentary rock. I hope my answer was helpful to you.
The rock is eroded or weathered away into sediments. The sediments settle and through compaction , the sediments are pushed together to form a sediment. Short Answer: It must be broken down into a sediment.
They are called clastic sedimentary rocks.

Clay is formed from rocks by those rocks being weathered to minute particles, those particles being washed in a river and then deposited. As clay is formed of these "sediments" it is sedimentary.
A sedimentary basin can be defined as a huge depression on the earth's surface which is capable of accumulating thousands of sediments.
Sedimentary rocks can be both chemically and mechanically weathered.
Yes. Any rock can be weathered to form sediment.
Sandstone is the sedimentary rock formed from weathered rock.
