What changes are involved when mud from a lake bottom turns into a sedimentary rock then into a metamorphic rock?
The sediments on the lake bottom undergo lithification and become sedimentary rock. Further compaction, pressure, and heat turn it into metamorphic rock.
Do dirt turn to mud and mud turn back into dirt?
It is the water content (or lack of) that alters the condition of the dirt (soil).
Why do you think raindrop impressions are more likely to be preserved in fine- grained sedimentary rock rather than coarse- grained sedimentary rocks?
Vary fine sediments, such as mud, will crater when struck by raindrops. If the viscosity is not decreased by too much rainfall or influx of water, the raindrop impressions will be preserved when the mud dries. If subsequent sedimentation over the dried mud is rapid, the dried mud will not have time enough to dissolve by the influx of additional moisture. Thus the imprints may survive eventual lithification into rock. Coarser sediments would involve larger mineral and rock particle sizes and more pore space than finer, less porous sediments. The larger particles, and greater porosity would not be conducive to the creation of raindrop impressions or their preservation, as the drop would not cause a cratering of the impacted sediment, but rather pass around and through it.
Rock formed by mud sand or clay?
Sandstone.
What type of metamorphic rock could be produced from mud?
If the mud has lithified into shale or mudstone, then metamorphosed, the answer would be slate.
What does compacted and dried mud turn into?
Nothing
Is dried mud a rock?
maybe because it is wet dirt and dirt is made up of little pieces of rock
Is dried mud flammable?
no
Which architecture is created with sun dried bricks made from mud?
Adobe structures are made from sun dried bricks of mud and straw.
What is mud rock made out of?
Mud
What are mud huts?
they are small houses made frome dried mud. mud huts are houses made of cow dung(poo) and dirt.
Is dried clay classified as a rock?
A dried clay cannot be classified as a rock
Where are petrified fossils located?
Everwhere. but mainly in dried mud
How do crystal change over time?
crystals change because of sediments such as sand and small pieces of dried up mud. the sediments begin to chip away at the rock until after about 3000 years the rock looks completely different.

What kind of rock was deposited first?
The first rock to dissolve in water are pebbles,mud,and mud.😊
What did the Mesopotamian build with?
sun dried bricks
