Mar 14 32 Rocks are awesome They can be found everywhere on earth and come in many different shapes forms and textur There are three main types of rock igneous sedimentary and metamorphicSedimentary rocks are most often lithified sediments the origin of which may be from igneous metamorphic or other sedimentary rock and in some cases chemical solutions or organic matter

Igneous rock any of various crystalline or glassy rocks formed by the cooling and solidification of molten earth materialIgneous rocks constitute one of the three principal classes of rocks the others being metamorphic and sedimentaryChemical Sedimentary Rocks Unlike most other sedimentary rocks chemical rocks are not made of pieces of sediment Instead they have mineral crystals made from elements that are dissolved in water The water in the oceans lakes and ground is often full of dissolved elements All sorts of things can dissolve into water

The rock cycle describes how the three major types of rock metamorphic igneous and sedimentary can change into one another through various geologic processes according to Learnerorg This occurs through such happenings as cooling erosion weathering and meltingMechanically formed sedimentary rock Chemically formed sedimentary rock and Organically formed sedimentary rock

The three main types or classes of rock are sedimentary metamorphic and igneous and the differences among them have to do with how they are formed Sedimentary Sedimentary rocks are formed from particles of sand shells pebbles and other fragments of material Together all these particles are called sedimentThere are three different ways rock can be created on Earth and thus there are three main classifications of rock based on the three processes igneous sedimentary and metamorphic Igneous Rock Igneous rocks are formed from the molten liquid minerals that lie below the Earth s crust

Sedimentary rocks form from the weathering of other rocks dead organic remains or chemical precipitation Processes used to form sedimentary rocks include classic sedimentation chemical sedimentation and biochemical sedimentation Examples of sedimentary rocks Why Prezi The science Conversational presenting Product Business

Oct 23 32 Best Answer 1 They are composed of fragments of pre existing rocks that have been concentrated compacted and cemented without necessarily undergoing chemical change 2 Some are precipitated from mineral rich solutions or waters on the earth s surface 3 Composition of these rocks greatly depend on the The three types of rocks are sedimentary metamorphic and igneous Sedimentary are form from sediments that may include particles of sand pebbles or other ston Fossils may also be found in sedimentary rock Metamorphic rock takes millions of years to

Metamorphic rock is produced from either igneous rock rock formed from the cooling and hardening of magma or sedimentary rock rock formed from compressed and solidified layers of organic or inorganic matter Most of Earth s crust is made up of metamorphic rockSedimentary Rocks Rivers oceans winds and rain runoff all have the ability to carry the particles washed off of eroding rocks Such material called detritus consists of fragments of rocks and mineralsWhen the energy of the transporting current is not strong enough to carry these particles the particles drop out in the process of sedimentation

There are three types of sedimentary rocks Fragments of other rocks and seashells that have migrated and cemented together make clastic rocks When minerals and other substances bubble out of a solution chemical sedimentary rocks form such as when rock salt forms Age old remains of plants and animals form organic sedimentary rocks Sedimentary rocks may be formed through a process called lithification which is the accumulation and compaction of sedimentary materials into solid rocks Transportation through water systems such as rivers and oceans may cause clay silt and other sedimentary materials to accumulate and form into rocks such as sandstone and shale

Sedimentary rocks are one of the three major types of rocks found on Earth As the name suggests they are formed by the deposition or sedimentation of gravel soil and even organic matter carried by the wind glaciers rivers and by surface run off waterFor the purposes of the present discussion three major categories of sedimentary rocks are recognized 1 terrigenous clastic sedimentary rocks 2 carbonates limestone and dolomite and 3 noncarbonate chemical sedimentary rocks Terrigenous clastic sedimentary rocks are composed of the detrital fragments of preexisting rocks and
