sedimentary rocks change the same way any other rock would: heat and pressure


Does metamorphic rocks have a higher porosity than sedimentary rocks?

No, sedimentary rocks generally have higher porosity than metamorphic rocks. Sedimentary rocks are formed from the accumulation of sediments, which can leave pore spaces between grains. Metamorphic rocks, on the other hand, have been subjected to heat and pressure, which can close up or reduce the pore spaces, leading to lower porosity.

Where does sedimentary rock come from originally?

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.


How would you describe a sedimentary rock?

Sedimentary rock is one of the three main rock groups (along with igneous and metamorphic rocks) and is formed in three main ways-by the deposition of the weathered remains of other rocks (known as clastic sedimentary rocks); by the deposition of the results of biogenic activity; and by precipitation from solution. Sedimentary rocks include common types such as chalk, limestone, sandstone, and shale. :)


What type of rock is made of sediments?

Sandstone, claystone, limestone, or various other type of sedimentary rocks. That answer is WAY wrong the correct answer would be a sedimentary rock.


Do sedimentary rocks have parent rocks?

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'.
