Sedimentary rocks exist in curved and interrupted forms due to the processes of deposition, compaction, and lithification influenced by various environmental factors. During sedimentation, layers of sediments can be deposited in different orientations and under varying conditions, such as changes in water currents, wind patterns, or tectonic activity, leading to bending and folding. Additionally, erosion can remove sections of rock, creating interruptions in the layers. These phenomena reflect the dynamic Earth processes that shape sedimentary environments over time.

What type of sedimentary rock forms when particles of mineral and rocks are cemented together?
Detrital sedimentary rock. clastic sedimentary A+
Weathered rock materials are pressed and cemented to form?
That forms sedimentary rock.
Which of the following forms when rocks are weathered and eroded?
Sedimentary rock
Describe how clastic sedimentary rock differs from chemical and organic sedimentary rock?
Clastic sedimentary rock forms when fragments of preexisting rocks are compacted or cemented together. Organic sedimentary rock forms from the remains of plants or animals. Chemical sedimentary rock forms when minerals precipitate from a solution or settle from a suspension.
Which type of rock forms from materials that settle and accumulate?
Sedimentary rock forms from materials like sediment, minerals, and organic matter that settle and accumulate over time. These materials are compacted and cemented together to form sedimentary rocks such as sandstone, shale, and limestone.
How is sedimentary formed?
It forms by
