What is formed when crustal rocks are compressed?
When crustal rocks are compressed, they can form folded structures like mountains or mountain ranges. The intense pressure can also cause the rocks to undergo metamorphism, transforming them into new types of rocks like schist or gneiss. Additionally, faulting and earthquakes can occur as a result of this compression.

What kind of rocks we can consider as sedimentary rocks-?
Slate (compressed silt and mud); Sandstone (compressed sand grains); and limestone (the skeleton remains of microscopic shelled creatures).
What rocks form from dead plants and animals that have been compressed?
Rocks that form from dead plants and animals that have been compressed are called sedimentary rocks. Examples include coal, which forms from compressed plant matter, and limestone, which can contain compressed remains of marine organisms. This process of transformation over time is known as diagenesis.
What are rocks formed from?
Organic rocks form from dead organisms that pile up and is compressed into a rock.
What rocks are formed when sediments are compressed compacted and cemented togerther?
Sedimentary rocks are formed when sediments are compressed, compacted, and cemented together. Examples include sandstone, shale, and limestone.
Can rocks change from any other type of rock?
Yes, rocks can change from any type.Igneous rocks can be compressed and change into a Metamorphic.Sedimentary and Metamorphic can be heated and compressed together to form any kind of Metamorphic.Sedimentary rocks can be formed from chips of an Igneous rock.And so forth. . .
