Pebbles can develop holes through a process called abrasion, where tumbling in rivers or oceans causes small pieces of rock to wear away, creating holes. Other times, these holes can form from the dissolution of minerals within the pebble, leaving behind empty spaces.
Sedimentary rocks form as pieces of loose material get pressed or cemented together. The process of forming sedimentary rocks is lithification.
Um, well... obviously a sandy beach :D

Yes, pebbles and sand are denser than water, so they will sink to the bottom. Over time, they can form a mixed layer as the smaller particles settle in between the larger pebbles.
Boulders broken down by weathering or erosion can form smaller pieces called pebbles or gravel. These smaller pieces can eventually be further weathered into sand particles.

Pebbles form from larger rocks that have eroded into smaller rocks thus producing pebbles.
Not all penguins engage in the behavior of giving pebbles as a form of courtship.

No, the word 'pebbles' is a count noun, the plural form of the singular noun 'pebble'.

Weathered pieces of rock are called sediment. As rocks are broken down by physical or chemical processes, they form sediment that can be transported and eventually deposited elsewhere.

A mixture of pebbles and sand is considered heterogeneous because the individual components (pebbles and sand) are visibly different and do not form a uniform composition throughout the mixture.
