What type of rock is organic rock?
An Organic rock is an Sedimentary rock and it is made in the ocean from calcium and other minerals building up on the ocean floor :)
What kind of rock can be broken into fragments that may later form sedimentary rock?
Any rock can be broken up and later form a sedimentary rock.
What kind of rock is made up of layers?
Sedimentary Rock is made up of layers of different rocks.
What type of rock is Bogenfels Arch?
The arch is made up of either sedimentary rock or metamorphic rock. Most likely sedimentary because the layers in the arch are distinct, solid bands of color, whereas a metamorphic rocks have swirly bands of color from the emense pressure the rock went through. Another reason the rock might be sedimentary is because the arch opening would not be as large if the rock was metamorphic rock, which can whithstand more erosion than sedimentary rock.
What type of rock igneous metamorphic or sedimentary makes up most of the continents?
The type of rock would be igneous.
What type of rock is organic rock?

Is limestone an example of a calsitic sedimentary rock?
Yes, limestone is an example of a calcitic sedimentary rock. It is primarily composed of calcite, which is a mineral form of calcium carbonate. Limestone forms from the accumulation of marine shells and sediments over time.
What is limestone a form of?
The fine-grained sedimentary rock, limestone is mostly made up of calcite. Most limestones are formed in oceans, and sometimes from seashells. Some may be formed in lakes. Limestone is a form of sedimentary rock.
Describe how clastic sedimentary rock differs from chemical and organic sedimentary rock?
Clastic sedimentary rock forms when fragments of preexisting rocks are compacted or cemented together. Organic sedimentary rock forms from the remains of plants or animals. Chemical sedimentary rock forms when minerals precipitate from a solution or settle from a suspension.
What is a sedimentary rock formed from deposits of shells called?
A sedimentary rock formed from deposits of shells is called limestone. Limestone is made up primarily of calcium carbonate, which is derived from the shells of marine organisms like coral or shellfish.
What is a sedimentary rock formed from materials that were once living limestone or sandstone?
Limestone is a sedimentary rock formed from the accumulation of shells, coral, and other calcium-rich materials of once-living organisms. Sandstone is a sedimentary rock made up of grains of sand, which are typically quartz or feldspar.
What kind of rock can be broken into fragments that may later form sedimentary rock?
Any rock can be broken up and later form a sedimentary rock.
What are clasts?
Clasts are individual pieces of rock or mineral fragments that make up a sedimentary rock. They can vary in size and shape, ranging from tiny grains to large boulders, and are important in determining the characteristics and composition of the sedimentary rock.
What type of rock is made up of slowly buried sediments that were later cemented together by dissolved minerials?
sedimentary rock
What does weathering have to do with how a sedimentary rock is formed?
If you don't have weather then the igneous rock won't break up into sedmints which won't turn into a sedimentary rock.
Can granite turn into any other rock?
Granite is Granite, However grind it down and mix it with other materials and rock grindings, compress it for a while and you end up with sedimentary rock.
How do you change sedimentary rock into a metamorphic rock?
You squash it and heat it up.
