OK, first the sediments are deposited then they under go cementation (being ''glued together'' by minerals that are left after evaporation) or it can go through compaction ( pressed together). And that is really all that happens.
It is called sedimentary rock.
Strata can be found in sedimentary rocks, which form in layers over time as sediments accumulate and compact. Igneous rocks, which form from molten magma cooling and solidifying, do not typically have distinct layers or strata.
Yes, layers of dirt, also known as sediment, can be compacted and cemented over time to form sedimentary rock through a process called lithification. This process involves the particles being compressed and solidified by pressure and mineral growth, resulting in the formation of sedimentary rocks like sandstone, shale, and limestone.
To create a sedimentary rock, layers of sediment such as sand, mud, or minerals must be deposited and compressed over time. This process, known as lithification, involves the compaction and cementation of the sediment layers to form a solid rock.
A metamorphic rock can become a sedimentary rock through weathering and erosion, where the existing rock is broken down into sediments. These sediments can then be carried away by water or wind and deposited in layers. Over time, these layers can become compacted and cemented together to form a new sedimentary rock.

Sedimentary rock is formed when layers of loose materials, such as sand or sediment, are compacted and cemented together over time.
Sedimentary rock layers. your welcome
A metamorphic rock can be changed into a sedimentary rock through the process of weathering and erosion. This involves the breakdown of the existing rock into sediment particles, which are then transported and deposited in layers. Over time, these layers of sediment can become compacted and cemented together to form a new sedimentary rock.
Bedrock
This is Shale, a Sedimentary rock.
Sedimentary, Hopefully that answers your question
