Sedimentary rocks are formed over millions of years when sediments (tiny pieces of rocks and animal skeletons) are pressed together at the bottom of seas and rivers.

Answer:

There are 3 types of rocks-

  • Igneous Rocks
  • Sedimentary Rocks
  • Metamorphic Rocks
  1. Igneous Rocks

The rocks that are formed by the cooling of the hot molten matter, called MAGMA which is abunduntly found in the earth's interior, Igneous Means

'FIERY'. Igneous rock (derived from the Latin word ignis meaning fire), or magmatic rock, is one of the three main rock types, the others being sedimentary and metamorphic.

2. Metamorphic Rocks

  • Metamorphic rocks arise from the transformation of existing rock types, in a process called metamorphism, which means "change in form".
  • Metamorphic rocks make up a large part of the Earth's crust and form 12% of the Earth's land surface.

3. Sedimentary rocks.

  • Sedimentary rocks are types of rock that are formed by the accumulation or deposition of small particles and subsequent cementation of mineral or organic particles on the floor of oceans or other bodies of water at the Earth's surface.
