What happens when rocks weathered?

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 rocks go through weather and erosion what do they turn into?

They can turn into sediments or dissolve.


What types of rocks can turn into sedimentary rocks?

the type of rock that change into sedimentary rock is igneous rock.it under go weathering to form sediments,sediments under go lithification to Ford sedimentary rocks


How is sediment created?

Sediment is created through the process of weathering and erosion. Weathering breaks down rocks into smaller pieces, while erosion transports these pieces to new locations where they accumulate and form sediment layers. Over time, pressure and cementation can turn these sediments into sedimentary rocks.


All rocks are made of sediments?

Not all rocks are, only sedimentary rocks are truly made up of sediments. Some metamorphic rocks do because they are formed when heat and pressure are applied to sedimentary rocks, which makes sediments the basis of these rocks as well


What rocks form from the sediments of the other rocks?

Sedimentary rocks.


What is the process that changes rock into sedimemts?

Weathering and erosion are the processes that change rocks into sediments. Weathering breaks down rocks into smaller pieces, while erosion transports these sediments to new locations where they can accumulate. Over time, compaction and cementation turn these sediments into sedimentary rocks.

Which sphere includes rocks and sediments?

The lithosphere includes rocks and sediments. This is the outermost solid part of the Earth, consisting of the crust and upper mantle. Rocks and sediments are part of the lithosphere's composition.
