Question

State two ways in which water affects the formation of sedimentary rocks​

Answer 1

Answer:

Sedimentary rocks are one of three main types of rocks, along with igneous and metamorphic. They are formed on or near the Earth’s surface from the compression of ocean sediments or other processes.

Answer 2

Answer:

Erosion and weathering include the effects of wind and rain, which slowly break down large rocks into smaller ones.

With this process, water that is slightly acidic slowly wears away stone. These three processes create the raw materials for new, sedimentary rocks.
