What is a siliceous shell?
Amorphous siliceous(silica contain)hard parts mostly found in radiolaria and heliozoa.
What type of rock is siliceous volcanic glass?
Siliceous volcanic glass is also known as obsidian.
What does the sediment the is closer to mid ocean ridge compare to sediment that is farther away?
The closer the sediment is to the mid-ocean ridge, the younger it is. The oldest bedrock is found the farthest away from it.
What type of sediment can be found far from its source?
Smaller sediment, such as silt and clay. It is smaller, so it can be carried higher into stronger winds, which blow the small sediment far from its source.
Which type of sediment can be found far from its source explain?
Sediment that is finer than sand is sometimes deposited in layers far from its source.
Which type of sediment is made up mainly of the shells of diatoms?
Siliceous

Which type of sediment is made up mainly of the shells of diatoms and radiolarians?
We know that limestone is made up of those things, and some others. We also know that chalk, a kind of limestone, is composed mainly of tiny shells made of a mineral called calcite.
What is silicate minerals?
The minerals that contain silica. This would include quartz, as well as the silicates. The siliceous ooze is the biogenic sediment, containing the remains of organisms whose skeleton is based on silicates.
What cn be found in sediment rocks?
Fossils and sediment
Where is sediment found?
It is found in faeces
What type of rock is siliceous volcanic glass?
Siliceous volcanic glass is also known as obsidian.
What are Calcareous and siliceous?
biogenous
Where do you find chert?
Chert is a siliceous roc that is a type of microcrystallite quartz. It is often found in thick beds of deep geosynclinal deposits.
What is found in a deltas?
small and large sediment
What causes Amorphous sediment in urine?
Amorphous sediment in urine are things like crystal phosphates, uric acid stones or calcium stones that are found in the urine. Certain amorphous sediment found in urine is normal. The cause of amorphous sediment depends on the type of sediment. For instance, uric acid stones can be caused from not drinking enough liquids.
What rocks are majority of the fossils found in?
sediment rocks
