What else can I help you with?
What type of rock is made up of slowly buried sediments that were later cemented together by dissolved minerials?
sedimentary rock
What rock is formed when debris is buried compressed and cemented together?
Sedimentary rock is formed when debris, such as sand, clay, and other particles, is buried, compressed, and cemented together over time. Examples of sedimentary rocks include sandstone, shale, and limestone.
What three things can happen to a sedimentary rock in the rock cycle?
A sedimentary rock can undergo metamorphism to form a metamorphic rock, can be weathered and eroded into sediment, or can be buried deep in the Earth to undergo lithification to form a new sedimentary rock.
What are the two processes to form sedimentary rock?
The two processes to form sedimentary rock are called compaction and cementation. Compaction occurs when sediments are buried and squeezed together by the weight of overlying deposits. Cementation happens when minerals in groundwater fill the spaces between sediment grains and bind them together.
What happens to the rock fragments that get buried after a long time?
It depends how deep it is buried. If it is just covered with more and more sediment, it will compact and cement to become sedimentary rock. If it is buried to the point where it gets into the mantle or a comparable area, it can become melted into an igneous rock or baked and altered into a metamorphic rock.
What happens to rock fragments tat get buried aftr a long time?
They become compacted and cemented into sedimentary rock.
Which type of rock does sedimentary rock change into when buried?
Metamorphic rock, if buried deep enough.
What type of rock does sedimentary rock turn into when it is buried?
metamorphic

What part of the rock cycle happens after the igneous rock?

What rock is formed when debris is buried compressed and cemented together?
Sedimentary rock is formed when debris, such as sand, clay, and other particles, is buried, compressed, and cemented together over time. Examples of sedimentary rocks include sandstone, shale, and limestone.
Can sedimentary rock be formed to any other rock?
yes it can be buried so deep it could turn into a metamorphic rock, or it could get buried next to a volcano and be molded into an igneous rock.
