What else can I help you with?
Sedimentary deposits built into relatively regular layers are known as?
Strata.
Which type of rock forms in layers which are called strata?
Sedimentary rock forms in layers called strata. These layers are created when sediments such as sand, mud, and organic material are deposited over time and compressed together. Examples of sedimentary rocks include sandstone, limestone, and shale.
What features tell you how a sedimentary rocked is layered?
Sedimentary rocks are often deposited in layers as strata. The feature that tells how a sedimentary rock is layered is called the bedding.
What are the layers of sandstone called?
The layers of any sedimentary rock are called strata.
What are the bands of different colored or structured materials in some sedimentary rocks called?
The different bands in sedimentary formations are called strata.
Which stress situations results in folding of flat-lying sedimentary strata?
horizontally directed; compressive stresses
Sedimentary deposits built into relatively regular layers are known as?
Strata.
Where can strata can be found sedimentary rock or igneous rock?
Strata can be found in sedimentary rocks, which form in layers over time as sediments accumulate and compact. Igneous rocks, which form from molten magma cooling and solidifying, do not typically have distinct layers or strata.
What are Layers of sedimentary rock referd to as?
