Which rocks are made of the smallest sediments?
Clay rocks are made of the smallest sediment particles. These fine-grained particles are typically less than 0.002 mm in size and form rocks such as shale or mudstone.
How did sedentaryrock get its name?
I think you mean a sedimentary rock, which gets its name from the sediments of which it is made up from.
Rock that is made up of pebbles cemented together with other sediments?
Pebble conglomerate is rock that is made up of pebbles cemented together with other sediments.
Chalk formed from sediments made of skeletons of microscopic living things in the ocean must be a?
Chalk formed from sediments made of skeletions of microscopic living things in the ocean must be a(n) organic rock.
What type of rock is made from weathering and erosion?
Sedimentary rock is formed when igneous rocks weather to sediments, then the sediments compact to sedimentary rock. When Igneous rocks are subjected to heat and pressure but do not melt, they become metamorphic rock. When igneous rocks are melted they make other igneous rocks.
Which rock is made of the smallest sediments?
Claystone. Shale also contains clay sized particles mixed with silts.

What would happen to a metamorphic rock that was wheathered and broken down into sediments?

Is made of sediments an igneous rock characteristics?

What is a sedimentary rock made from large sediments like rock and pebbles?
conglomerate
What kind of rock is made when rock minerals and remains of living things are made when these sediments are cemented together?
sedimentary rock
Which inorganic sedimentary rock has the smallest size sediments?
the smallest particles of sediment are found in clay.
What is the rock that is made from erosion and deposition of sediments?
The rock that is made from the erosion and deposition of sediments is called sedimentary rock. Examples include sandstone, limestone, and shale. These rocks form from the compression and cementation of layers of sediment over time.
