What else can I help you with?
Are sedimetary rocks vesicular?
No, sedimentary rocks are generally not vesicular. Vesicular rocks are typically igneous rocks that contain gas bubbles trapped during cooling, creating a porous appearance. Sedimentary rocks form from the accumulation and compression of sediments, which do not typically contain vesicles.
Rocks formed from weathered debris from preexisisting rocks are called?
They are called clastic sedimentary rocks.
What kind of igneous rocks for on earths surface?
Some do. These are called extrusive igneous rocks. However a large portion of igneous rocks form beneath the surface. These are intrusive igneous rocks.
Changed-over rocks are called?
Metamorphic Rocks
Scientist who study the physical properties of rocks to tell how the rocks may have formed are called?
Scientists who study rocks are called petrologists.
What is an example of compact?
With Cementation and compaction combined forms Sedimetary Rocks is an example
Are sedimetary rocks vesicular?

Why are some rocks called sedimentry rocks?

Explain how a metamorphic rock can be changed into a sedimentary rock?
It's the other way around: How does a sedimentary rocks turn into a metamorphic rocks? The answers is: "By heat and pressure". Metamorphic rocks never turn into sedimentary rocks.
Are there crystal rocks by your home?
yes there are some rocks that are round called geodes these rocks are hollow on the inside and have crystals inside them
Do rocks come from quarry?
Some rocks came from quarry, ergo not all rocks came from quarrying, rocks may came from different processes like sedimentation, there are also some rocks that came from volcanoes, these kind of rocks are called igneous rocks.
Why are some rocks quarried?
The extraction of rocks for use by humans is called quarrying. In order to use the rocks, they must first be quarried.
Why can you only find fossils on sedimetary rock?
Because .. the rocks have piled up crushing everything that on it and soon, it stays there for a while and gets fossilized.. i forgot the rest im in grade 9 and i learned this in grade 4
How does sedimetary rock become igneous rock?
it melts and then cools
What are rocks in the sea called?
Rocks in the sea are typically referred to as sea rocks or underwater rocks. They can also be called submerged rocks or marine rocks.
Are some rocks mushroom shaped?
There are rocks that are shaped like a mushroom.It is called a mushroom rock.Mushroom rocks are only found in the desert areas.
Are sedimetary rocks formed from heat and pressure?
Sedimentary rocks are formed from buildup of sediment, or particles of dirt and organic debris and things like that. Think of sedimentary rocks like the bottom of a river bed- stuff builds up on top until it becomes hard and solid- a rock, so pressure is a factor, but not necessarily heat. It is usually metamorphic rocks that involve both heat and pressure.
