Igneous rocks can disturb sedimentary rock layers and formations by their movement during ascent through such layer. when they make contact with this sedimentary rocks they could result to folding and/or metamorphism.
Folding is when formerly flat sedimentary layers of rock are uplifted and literally tilted and folded in the mountain building process.
Rock formed at the mid-Atlantic ridge can be uplifted through tectonic processes and exposed to weathering and erosion. The eroded rock particles can then be transported by rivers or wind and eventually deposited in a basin, where they can accumulate over time to form sedimentary layers. Through compaction and cementation, these layers can then lithify into sedimentary rock.
When we consider sedimentary rock in Utah, we know that there is only one way it could be there. The area was once under the sea, sediments were laid down, then compressed to form the rock. This took millions of years. Finally, after the passage of millions more years, the whole area was uplifted to its current elevation.

Not every rock goes through the entire rock cycle in a linear progression from igneous to sedimentary to metamorphic and back to igneous. The rock cycle is more complex, with rocks undergoing various processes depending on environmental conditions. For instance, an igneous rock may weather and erode into sediment, forming sedimentary rock, but it doesn't necessarily have to transform into metamorphic rock. Additionally, rocks can be recycled in different ways, such as sedimentary rocks melting into magma or metamorphic rocks being directly uplifted and eroded.

Clastic sedimentary rock.
Flat-lying sedimentary rock layers are subjected to compressional forces, typically from tectonic plate movements, which cause the rocks to bend and fold. Over time, this deformation generates folded mountain ranges as the layers are pushed together and uplifted.
