What features of sedimentary rocks are unlikely to be found in metamorphic rocks what features of metamorphic rocks do not occur in sedimentary rocks?
ftygghhjgg
What is the or-gin of sedimentary rocks?
weathering of preexisting rocks form clastic sedimentary rocks, Oversaturated water basins form chemical sedimentary rocks after the water evaporates and dead sea organisms settle at the bottom forming biochemical sedimentary rocks.
Are sedimentary rocks chemically weathered?
Sedimentary rocks can be both chemically and mechanically weathered.
Is sedimentary rocks formed the same way normal rocks are?
No, because a sedimentary rock is formed from pieces of other rocks.
What else can sedimentary rocks form from?
All rocks can form from sedimentary because the rock cycle is endless.
Rocks formed from weathered debris from preexisisting rocks are called?
They are called clastic sedimentary rocks.
What has the author Sam Boggs written?
Sam Boggs has written: 'Petrology of sedimentary rocks' -- subject(s): Sedimentary Rocks 'Petrology of sedimentary rocks' -- subject(s): Rocks, Sedimentary, Sedimentary Rocks
Are sedimentary rocks formed from fragments of other rocks chemical sedimentary rocks?
No, sedimentary rocks formed from fragments of other rocks are called clastic sedimentary rocks. Chemical sedimentary rocks form from minerals that are dissolved in water and precipitate out to form rocks like limestone or halite.
Are arrowheads made from sedimentary rocks?
Arrowheads are typically made from harder rocks like flint, obsidian, or chert, which are not sedimentary rocks. These hard rocks were preferred for arrowhead-making because they can hold a sharp edge and withstand repeated use. Sedimentary rocks are generally too soft to be suitable for making arrowheads.
Are there any fossils in sedimentary rocks?
Yes all fossils occur in sedimentary rocks or rocks that began as sedimentary rocks.
What are three types of rocks?
igneous, sedimentary, metamorphic
What type of rocks can contain fossils on them?
Sedimentary rocks. and metamorphic rocks made form sedimentary rocks.
Are sedimentary rocks classified tofoliated sedimentary rocks?
No, sedimentary rocks are not classified as foliated. Foliation is a textural feature found in certain types of metamorphic rocks where minerals are aligned in layers or bands due to pressure and heat. Sedimentary rocks are formed by the accumulation and cementation of sediments and do not exhibit foliation.
How are clastic sedimentary rocks different from organic sedimentary rocks?
they form
Can Metamorphic rocks can form from igneous but not from sedimentary rocks.?
Metamorphic rocks can form from both igneous and sedimentary rocks
Can metamorphic rocks can form from igneous but not from sedimentary rocks?
Metamorphic rocks can form from both igneous and sedimentary rocks
What class of sedimentary rocks is made of fragments of rocks mineral and shells?
== == Clastic sedimentary rocks.
