Clastic: These rocks are composed predominantly of broken pieces of older weathered and eroded rocks
Non-clastic/ Organic: A sedimentary rock composed of the remains of plants and animals.
just figure it out!
The three categories of sedimentary rocks are clastic, chemical, and organic. Clastic rocks form from the accumulation of weathered rock fragments, chemical rocks form from the precipitation of minerals from water, and organic rocks form from the remains of living organisms.
Bituminous is not clastic, as clastic refers to sedimentary rocks composed of fragments of pre-existing rocks. Bituminous, on the other hand, is a type of coal formed from the compression and heating of organic matter.
Clastic rocks are composed of broken pieces of older rocks that have been broken up by the process of weathering and are therefore sedimentary in nature. The "clasts" (bits of older rock) may vary in size.
Clastic sedimentary rocks: Formed from the accumulation of mineral and rock fragments that are cemented together. Chemical sedimentary rocks: Formed from precipitation of minerals dissolved in water. Organic sedimentary rocks: Formed from the accumulation of organic material, such as plants or animals.
Non-clastic rocks are formed through chemical and organic processes. Chemical rocks like limestone are formed when minerals in water precipitate out and accumulate. Organic rocks like coal are formed from the remains of plants and animals that are buried and compacted over time. These processes occur without the transportation and deposition of sediments like in clastic rocks.
They are all Sedimentary

None of the above. These terms describe sedimentary rocks. Granite is igneous.

Organic, Chemical and Clastic
Conglomerate is a clastic rock. They are coarse-grained sedimentary rocks.
Clastic and organic sedimentary rocks like conglomerate, coal, some limestones, and shale, are formed under pressure from overlying sediments.
Organic, Chemical and clastic.
Bituminous is not clastic, as clastic refers to sedimentary rocks composed of fragments of pre-existing rocks. Bituminous, on the other hand, is a type of coal formed from the compression and heating of organic matter.

Clastic Sedimentary Rock- Sedimnetary rocks formed from fragments of rocks cemented together by minerals such as calcite.Chemical Sedimentary Rock- Sedimentary rocks formed from a solution of minerals (such as halite) and water.Organice Sedimentary Rocks- Sedimentary Rocks formed from the remaints of dead sea animals and seashells.
