This type of sedimentary rock is formed from larger settled particles such as pebbles and grav?
conglomerate
Is sedimentary rock made from solidified lava?
Rock that is formed from volcanoes are igneous rocks. Sedimentary rocks are formed from other layers of grains that are heaving and over millions of years have enough weight squish the grains into a proper rock. This is why the newest rocks are found at the top of layers.
Can pebbles change into igneous metamorphic and sedimentary rocks?
No. It's too late.Unless it gets eroded itself and eventually forms layers of sediment which may then get turned into rock.
Is a sediment rock?
Sediment is the stuff that settles at the bottom of a liquid (such as the bottom of a pond). It can include sand and pebbles but also dead plants and animals. If conditions are right, the sediment can dry out and turn into a sedimentary rock (a rock made from sediment). Sedimentary rocks can contain fossils of plants or animals that fell into the "muck" at the bottom of a body of water. Cool, huh?
What is A sedimentary rock that is made out of small pieces of existing rocks or minerals said to be?
It is said to be a clastic sedimentary rock.
What is a sedimentary rock made of pebbles called?
Conglomerate
Can coarse sedimentary rock be made up of pebbles or boulders?
Yes, coarse sedimentary rock can be made up of pebbles or boulders. Coarse sedimentary rocks are formed from the accumulation and cementation of larger grains, such as pebbles and boulders, that are transported by water, ice, or wind. These larger grains are typically found in rocks like conglomerate or breccia.
What is a sedimentary rock made from large sediments like rock and pebbles?
conglomerate
What are sedimentary rocks that are made up of rounded pebbles cemented together called?
Conglomerate is a sedimentary rock made up of rounded pebbles cemented together.
What are rocks that are made up of pebbles cemented together with other sediments?
If the pebbles are rounded, then the rock is a conglomerate. If the pebbles have sharper edges, the the rock is a breccia. Both are types of sedimentary rock.
Sedimentary rock made from sediments like rocks and pebbles?
Some are, yes. But broadly speaking, sedimentary is rock made of sediment, which can be far smaller. A classic example of a rock/pebble rock is conglomerate.
What is Conglomerate Rock?
Conglomerate is a sedimentary rock. It has pebbles glued in the rock so it looks like a lot of pebbles put together.
What kind of rock is gravel pebbles for conglomerate?

What is a rock that is made up as pebbles and sand grains that have been cemented together?
