What else can sedimentary rocks form from?
All rocks can form from sedimentary because the rock cycle is endless.
What is the or-gin of sedimentary rocks?
weathering of preexisting rocks form clastic sedimentary rocks, Oversaturated water basins form chemical sedimentary rocks after the water evaporates and dead sea organisms settle at the bottom forming biochemical sedimentary rocks.
Do sedimentary rocks just form under water?
No, it can form on land also. Just as long as they go through lithification
Rocks changed in form from sedimentary or igneous rocks?
Are meatmorphic rocks and also perhaps soil.
Three ways in which sedimentary rocks differ from other rocks?
Sedimentary rocks are made up of materials that were once part of another rock. Most sediments are deposited on ocean floors or at the bottom of rivers and lakes.Clastic sedimentary rocks form from layers of sediments. Pressure causes the water around the sediments to be squeezed out and the sediments are cemented together.
Can sedimentary rocks form under the ocean or on land only?
Sedimentary rocks formed under oceans, but the ocean may no longer be there. The Great Lakes region was once all under water and has much sedimentary rock.
What rocks form under water?
sedimentary
What types of rocks can turn into sedimentary rocks?
the type of rock that change into sedimentary rock is igneous rock.it under go weathering to form sediments,sediments under go lithification to Ford sedimentary rocks
Can Metamorphic rocks can form from igneous but not from sedimentary rocks.?
Metamorphic rocks can form from both igneous and sedimentary rocks
Can metamorphic rocks can form from igneous but not from sedimentary rocks?
Metamorphic rocks can form from both igneous and sedimentary rocks
What are the three types of rocks cycle?
The three types of rocks in the rock cycle are igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks. Igneous rocks form from molten rock cooling and solidifying. Sedimentary rocks form from the accumulation and compaction of sediments. Metamorphic rocks form from the alteration of existing rocks under high pressure and temperature.
What do sedimentary rocks form from?
Sedimentary rocks form from a few different things. Sedimentary rocks form from sediment is deposited out of air, ice, wind and gravity.
Are rocks divided into three main classes?
Yes, rocks are commonly categorized into three main classes: igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic. Igneous rocks form from the cooling and solidification of magma or lava, sedimentary rocks form from the accumulation and compression of sediments, and metamorphic rocks form from the alteration of existing rocks under high pressure and temperature.
Are sedimentary rocks formed from fragments of other rocks chemical sedimentary rocks?
No, sedimentary rocks formed from fragments of other rocks are called clastic sedimentary rocks. Chemical sedimentary rocks form from minerals that are dissolved in water and precipitate out to form rocks like limestone or halite.
How are clastic sedimentary rocks different from organic sedimentary rocks?
they form
Sedimentary rocks form when layers of small particles are compressed?
Yes, sedimentary rocks are formed through the accumulation and lithification of sediments, which are small particles derived from the weathering and erosion of pre-existing rocks. Over time, these sediments are buried, compacted, and cemented together to create sedimentary rocks.
What type of rocks can contain fossils on them?
Sedimentary rocks. and metamorphic rocks made form sedimentary rocks.
