What else can I help you with?
Can only igneous rocks become sedimentary rock?
No, any type of rock can become sedimentary rock, because sedimentary rock refers to any rock that has been eroded, and pressure has been applied to it so as to solidify it from a granular state.
What rocks are formed from broken rocks?
Rocks formed from broken rocks are known as sedimentary rocks. These rocks are formed from the accumulation and lithification of sediments, which can include fragments of other rocks, minerals, and organic material. Common examples of sedimentary rocks formed from broken rocks include sandstone, conglomerate, and shale.
What rocks are formed when sediments are compressed compacted and cemented togerther?
Sedimentary rocks are formed when sediments are compressed, compacted, and cemented together. Examples include sandstone, shale, and limestone.
What classification do coral reefs that are preserved as sedimentary rocks fall under?
Preserved coral reefs that have turned into sedimentary rocks are classified as biogenic sedimentary rocks.
What sedimentary rocks are formed from the remains of plants and animals?
Sedimentary rocks formed from the remains of plants and animals are called organic sedimentary rocks. Examples include coal, formed from the remains of plants, and limestone, formed from the shells of marine organisms.
Are there any fossils in sedimentary rocks?
Yes all fossils occur in sedimentary rocks or rocks that began as sedimentary rocks.
Rocks formed from weathered debris from preexisisting rocks are called?
They are called clastic sedimentary rocks.
What else can sedimentary rocks form from?
All rocks can form from sedimentary because the rock cycle is endless.
What kind of rocks can produce metamorphic rocks?
All sedimentary and igneous rocks
Gravel sandstone and conglomerate are all types of?
Gravel, sandstone, and conglomerate are all types of sedimentary rocks.
Do all sedimentary rocks bubble in acid?
No. Only sedimentary rocks containing carbonate minerals will bubble with acid.
What is the texture of inorganic land derived sedimentary rocks?
what is the texture of all inorganic land derived sedimentary rocks
What rock makes up ten percent of all sedimentary rocks?
Limestone makes up ten percent of all sedimentary rocks.
What is the name of all three rocks sedimentary igneous and?
Sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic.
How are clastic non clastic and organic sedimentary rocks the same?
They are all Sedimentary
What type of rocks weather and erode to form sedimentary rocks?
Igneous, metamorphic, and existing sedimentary rocks can weather and erode to form sedimentary rocks. Igneous and metamorphic rocks can break down into sediments through processes like weathering and erosion, which then may accumulate and lithify into sedimentary rocks. Existing sedimentary rocks can also be reworked and lithified to form new sedimentary rocks through processes like compaction and cementation.
