It becomes weathered and eroded to a residue called "regolith", consisting of sand and the clay-forming minerals. These are washed by rivers to the sea or lake beds, settle on the bottom and eventually their own weight compresses the deposit, squeezing out the water. Dissolved minerals precipitate out to cement the grains together, and there we have a new sedimentary rock.

The Igneous rock Sandstone can turn into which rock that can be a sedimentary rock?
Sandstone is sedimentary itself.
How does igneous rock change to sedimentary?
Sedimentary rock melts, then it cools to form Igneous rock. Hoped this helped. :)
How does a sedimentary rock turn into a metamorphic rock then into an igneous rock?
First, through metamorphism, then by melting and magmatism.
True or false sedimentary rock can be formed from changes in igneous rock but idneous rock cannot be formed changes in the sedimentary rock?
False Sedimetary rocks can be formed from changes in igneous rock, and igneous rock can be from changes in sedimentary rock.
Is opal a sedimentary igneous or metamorphic rock?
igneous
How does a igneous rock turn into sedimentary rock?
It melts it
How does a sedimentary rock turn into a igneous rock?
It melts it
The Igneous rock Sandstone can turn into which rock that can be a sedimentary rock?
Sandstone is sedimentary itself.
What type of rocks cannot turn into sedimentary rocks?
No rock. Any rock can turn into sedimentary rock, such as granite (igneous rock) and slate (metamorphic rock). Even sedimentary rock can turn into other sedimentary rock.
What causes to a sedimentary rock or a metamorphic rock that turn into an igneous rock?
Melting.
Can igneous rock and sedimentary rock and metamorphic rock turn into magma?
no it can't
How does igneous rock change to sedimentary?
Sedimentary rock melts, then it cools to form Igneous rock. Hoped this helped. :)
Can an metamorphic rock turn into either a igneous or a sedimentary rock?
yes. it can turn into either one
How will a sedimentary rock turn into an igneous rock?
Igneous rocks are formed when rock melts in a volcano or other hot spot.
Is breccia a sedimentary metamorphic or igneous rock?
Yes. In the rock cycle, any sedimentary rock can be transformed into a metamorphic rock due to deep burial where the rock is changed by the earth's high temperature and pressure, an exposure to a plutonic intrusion, where rocks such as granite are formed, or any other process where heat and pressure alter the composition, appearance, and classification of a rock. An igneous rock can turn into a metamorphic rock or a sedimentary rock. A metamorphic rock can turn into an igneous rock or a sedimentary rock, and a sedimentary rock can turn into an igneous rock or a metamorphic rock.
What things happen to a igneous rock for it to turn into sedimentary rock?
It melts then cools off
What process is needed for an igneous rock to turn into sedimentary rock?
Heat, erosion and pressure.
