From which substances are sedimentary rocks most likely made? Check all that apply. cooled lava melted rock sand particles small pebbles weathered rock
Answers
all sedimentary rocks are made up of element phosphorus , Lava which gets cooled turn into a solid form and form sedimentary rocks
Sedimentary rocks are formed by deposition and lithification of sediments and by precipitation of solution at normal surface temperatures at near the Earth's surface. These rocks are igneous and metamorphic.
STEP BY STEP EXPLANATION
Sedimentary rocks are formed by the weathering of pre-existing rocks and the subsequent transport and deposition due to weather conditions.
Weather conditions leads to the different processes of physical disintegration and chemical decomposition that occur when rocks are exposed to the atmosphere at the Earth's surface and hydrosphere.
Sedimentary rocks are the comparable lithified of sediments. They are usually formed by generally by cementing, compacting, and otherwise solidifying pre-existing unconsolidated sediments.
The total volume of sediments and sedimentary rocks can be either directly measured using exposed rock sequences, drill hole data and seismic profiles or indirectly calculated by comparing the chemistry of different sedimentary rock forms to the overall chemistry of the crust from which are formed from climatic conditions.
Earth's sedimentary rock layer forms only about 5% by volume of the Earth's crust, that in turn contributes with less than 1% of the Earth's total surface
The area of sediment and sedimentary mossy rocks and exposure covers 75% of the surface of the earth and far over 90% of the ocean basins and continental margins .
