Hey dear.....

Here is your answer....
____________________

✔️Characteristics of sedimentary rocks

1. Fossils are only limited to sedimenatry rocks only unless it is convrted into igneous or metomorphic rock with condition that it didn’t burn and altered in high pressure and temprature condtion.

2. Sedimentary structures do help to interprate paleo-environment.

3. More than 90% hydrocarbons are found in sedimentary rocks.

4. Sand , cement, bricks, gravels etc which are used to buil a building, roads etc also sedmentary rocks actually.

5.. sedimentary rocks are home of so many ores like bauxite, hematite, gypsem, coal and ores of other elemets like lead, uranium, chromite, copper etc.

1. Formed by the cooling and solidification of lava.
