Does conglomerate contain fossils?
In most cases yes. Portions of slow moving rivers, or where sediments that were carried in currents came to a rest, intact fossils can be cemented among the stones.
Is sand carried as far as gravel?
sand is carried farther than gravel because it weighs less and doesn't get stuck together.
What rocks are sedimentary rocks made from?
Sedimentary rocks can be made from any kind of material, from other rocks to shells to fossils. Basically, any rock, from metamorphic to igneous and even to sedimentary, can be weathered and eroded. These particles and grains can be carried great distances by wind, water, ants, etc. before they are lithified (cemented) back together to form sedimentary rocks.
What happens to sediment over time?
Sedimentary layers are conspicuous by the neighbors they keep. There are two types of sedimentary layers; those that have formed and those that are today forming. Over time they are compressed and thereby preserved.
How are layers formed in a Sedimentary Rock?
The layers are formed by the deposition of sediments carried by wind, water, or ice.

What is a good way one can keep O2 handy?
Compressed oxygen gas stored in tanks is lightweight enough to be carried around in a day to day environment. It is vitally important to take safety into account when carrying compressed flamable materials around.
How much tea carried aboard the titanic all together?
Titanic carried eight-hundred pounds of tea.
What does all together mean?
"All together now." means in unison. To be carried out as one. To sing together as one voice.
What made of sedimentary rocks?
Sedimentary rocks can be made from any kind of material, from other rocks to shells to plant material. Basically, any rock, from metamorphic to igneous and even to sedimentary, can be weathered and eroded. These particles and grains can be carried great distances by wind, water, ice, etc. before they are deposited and lithified (cemented) back together to form sedimentary rocks.

How shale rock is formed?
Compaction is the process of pore space reduction due to pressure exerted, normally by overburden weight. Shale would be produced by the process of lithification, which includes the individual steps of compaction and cementation of particles of sediment. Cementation occurs as mineral crystals precipitate from the water removed by compaction, binding the sedimentary particles together into rock.
How should an explosive material and a radioactive material be stowed when they are carried together?
the same when separated
How did civil war submarines get air?
The same way they do today, they took saltwater into tanks while underwater, evaporated out the salt and electrolyzed the oxygen out of it. They also carried tanks of compressed air in the submarine.
