A sedimentary rock is made from the products of the erosion of other rocks. These could be igneous, sedimentary or metamorphic rocks. If you wish to know the original rock from which sedimentary and metamorphic rocks came from, you have to go back to when the Earth formed. In this case, the answer would be an igneous rock.
In a sense they do, but not in the geologic sense that a metamorphic rock does. Most sedimentary rocks are formed from particles of other rocks which could be a mixture of all three types (sedimentary, igneous, metamorphic). Therefore they would have multiple parents, so the term "parent rock" is not used. The term most used is "source rock'.
You can find rocks that are sedimentary rocks which are found in mountains, rivers and near the seashores.
Great pressure and heat, but short of the temperature that would completely melt the rock.
organic/biochemical sedimentary rocks are formed of once-living organisms
The rock described would be a clastic sedimentary rock.
Sedimentary rocks change to metamorphic the same way any other rock would: through heat and pressure.
Metamorphic rocks would have less porosity than sedimentary rocks.
Yes, you can find fossils in sedimentary rocks.
sedimentary rocks change the same way any other rock would: heat and pressure
No. You would be referring to sedimentary rocks
Sandstone, claystone, limestone, or various other type of sedimentary rocks. That answer is WAY wrong the correct answer would be a sedimentary rock.
No sedimentary rocks are found yet. The reason is moon is lack of atmosphere.
Sedimentary Rocks. 75% of rocks exposed to the surface are sedimentary.
In general, sedimentary rock crystals would be crystals that are found in sedimentary rocks. Normally they are calcite or quartz as they are the minerals most likely to cement sediments to form sedimentary rocks. There is a group of sedimentary rocks called evaporites that include crystals of salt, gypsum, sylvite, glauberite, thenardite, mirabilite and a few others. However, there is a tremendous variety of other minerals that can produce crystals in sedimentary rocks. Geodes from Indiana, Illinois, and Kentucky can have crystals of barite, millerite, sphalerite, galena, fluorite, and aragonite. In other areas of the planet crystals of azurite and malachite can be found in sedimentary rocks. There are many, many other types of crystals that have been found in sedimentary rocks.
