What removes water from sediment to form sedimentary rock?

Evaporation removes water from sediment to form sedimentary rock. When water evaporates everything that was in the water dries out. The evaporation of water from sediment takes a very long time to form sedimentary rock.


What do pieces of sediment that have been pressed and cemented together form?

Pieces of sediment that have been pressed and cemented together form sedimentary rock. This process occurs over thousands of years as layers of sediment accumulate and are compacted under pressure, eventually forming solid rock. Sedimentary rocks can include sandstone, limestone, and shale.


When seas or lakes evaporate what type of sediment rock forms?

When seas or lakes evaporate, evaporites form which are sedimentary rocks that consist of minerals deposited from evaporating water. Common evaporite minerals include halite (rock salt), gypsum, and calcite.
