Coquina is a sedimentary rock made up of shells, shell fragments, and skeletons of small marine creatures.
No matter what kinds of rocks they are they can be changed into any other kind of rock. Sedimentary rocks and igneous rocks can become metamorphic rocks with either contact or regional metamorphism. This means that either the rocks have been in contact with or close to high heat and high pressure that changes the rock.
sedimentary rock can form rock such as sandstone that the Egyptian pyramids were built of or they can form the chalk that is used to write on the ground or on a black board.
Many kinds of rocks both of igneous and sedimentary nature eg; Limestone (sedimentary ) to marble or granite or diorite (igneous) to gneiss.
To accurately answer your question about the types of rocks that make up a specific landform, I need to know which landform you are referring to. Generally, landforms can be composed of various types of rocks, including igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks, depending on geological history and processes. For example, mountains may primarily consist of metamorphic rocks, while river valleys often feature sedimentary rocks. Please provide more details about the landform in question for a tailored response.
The three main rocks found on this planet are sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic.
The wind blows around dirt and sediment, and then that dirt solidifies into sedimentary rocks.
Sedimentary rocks are some kind of rock that i forgot about
make a loaf of bread and it eat this is sedimentrary rocks

Igneous Rocks, metamorphic rocks, and sedimentary rocks
heat and pressure.
Continental crustal rocks can be igneous, metamorphic, or sedimentary, but the vast majority are igneous, most closely resembling granite in composition.
Sedimentary rocks make up about 75% of Earth's crust by volume, while igneous rocks make up about 15-20%. Sedimentary rocks form through processes like erosion, deposition, and cementation, while igneous rocks form from the cooling of molten magma.
Sedimentary rocks are extremely common. Many use them in small, thin pieces to make stepping stones across their yards.
Metamorphic rocks are a type of rock along with igneous and sedimentary rocks.
The three main types of rocks that make up the Earth's crust are igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks. Igneous rocks are formed from the cooling and solidification of magma or lava. Sedimentary rocks are formed from the accumulation and compression of sediment. Metamorphic rocks are formed from the transformation of existing rocks under high pressure and temperature.
It is more likely that igneous and metamorphic, or igneous and sedimentary rocks would have something in common than sedimentary and metamorphic. The reason is because the processes involved in making metamorphic rocks is completely different than the processes needed to make sedimentary rocks. Only high temperature, high pressure minerals such as olivine, pyroxene, amphibole can withstand these kinds of conditions. Take quartz and feldspar, two of the most abundant minerals found in sedimentary rocks, these minerals would not be found in abundance in metamorphic rocks because they are not high temperature, high pressure rocks. But the most simple answer is that all the major groups of rocks are made of minerals. Metamorphic has high pressure and Igneous does to and both made from a particle called magma.
