How are little pieces of rock sediments formed?

Answer 1

For thousands, even millions of years, little pieces of our earth have been eroded--broken down and worn away

by wind and water. These little bits of our earth are washed downstream where they settle to the bottom of the rivers, lakes, and oceans. Layer after layer of eroded earth is deposited on top of each. These layers are pressed down more and more through time, until the bottom layers slowly turn into rock

Answer 2

Little pieces of rock sediments are formed through processes like weathering and erosion of larger rocks. These rocks are broken down into smaller pieces by forces such as wind, water, and ice. Over time, these small rock fragments accumulate and settle in layers to form sedimentary rocks.
