Grains fit together in sedimentary rocks, which are formed from the accumulation and compaction of sediment, such as sand, silt, and clay. These grains can be derived from the erosion of pre-existing rocks and are often cemented together by minerals precipitated from water. Common examples of sedimentary rocks include sandstone, shale, and limestone. The arrangement and size of the grains can provide insights into the environment of deposition.

What c describe's grains that fit together?
Close-packing is a term used to describe grains that fit tightly together with minimal space in between them. This arrangement maximizes the packing density of the grains.
What type of rock forms when small grains of rock are pressed together and become cemented?
Sedimentary rock forms when small grains of rock, such as sand or clay, are compressed and cemented together over time. Examples of sedimentary rock include sandstone and shale.
Is porous a rock formed from grains stuck together?
A rock formed from grains stuck together would be Porous
What is C is the name used to describe grains that fit together?
Crystals
Is sandstone made from tiny bits of rock stuck together?
Yes. Usually quartz grains along with other rock or mineral particles.
What I means the grains fit together?
Interlocking
What are interlocking grains?
Interlocking grains refer to the irregular and intertwined growth patterns of mineral grains in a rock. This texture indicates a strong bond between the grains and can enhance the overall strength and durability of the rock. Interlocking grains are commonly found in metamorphic rocks such as gneiss and marble.

oolite
Is sandstone igneous or sedimentary or metamorphic?
Sandstone is a sedimentary rock which is made up of sand grains which have been compressed to form a rock that has very weak bonds holding the grains together. The grains themselves can be igneous, sedimentary or metamorphic depending on which rock the grains were eroded from.
What I means that the grains all fit together?
Cereal for the goddess Ceres.
