08. Read the following text and answer the question that follows it.Sedimentary rocks are formed by the process of sedimentation. Layer after layer of minerals is deposited over a great span of time, resulting in the formation of a sedimentary rock. As a result, each layer is different if the conditions under which its deposits were different. Thus we can say that a sedimentary rock is a sort of museum, holding the records of all the time over which it was formed, which by all means can be as long as a billion years.What is the process by which sedimentary rocks are formed?*Your answer

Sedimentary rocks form when sediment is deposited and then solidifies. This process is called:

All of the following are ways in which sedimentary rocks form EXCEPT:A.Lava coolingB.Chemical processesC.Physical processesD.Build up of plant and animal remains

Sediment becomes sedimentary ROCK when it is deposited, compacted, and cemented together by chemicals that are transported by groundwater Easy question: Sand-size sediment, of any chemical composition, that goes through this process becomes ______________. When you see this sedimentary rock, you know you are in a location that was once a desert or a beach. In some places, you can even see textures characteristic of sand dunes.Group of answer choiceschalkconglomeratesandstonecoaloolitic limestone

Sediment the size of pebbles and cobbles forms the sedimentary rock  _____________.  If you see this sedimentary rock, you know that sometime in the past, there was a river flowing in the area, with currents strong enough to carry large pieces of rock. Later, the environment changed and the river sediment was compacted and cemented in place.Group of answer choiceschalkconglomeratesandstonecoal
