They are called clastic 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.
Yes all fossils occur in sedimentary rocks or rocks that began as sedimentary rocks.
Sedimentary rocks. and metamorphic rocks made form 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.
They are called clastic sedimentary rocks.
All the named rocks are igneous, metamorphic, or sedimentary.
Sedimentary rocks are rocks made up of rock fragments(sediment)and cemented and compacted together over time. There are three sub groups to sedimentary rock organic,clastic,and chemical.Some rocks under sedimentary rocks are limestone,sandstone,and shale.

Geologists classify rocks based on their origin (igneous, sedimentary, metamorphic), mineral composition, texture, and mode of formation.

Metamorphic rocks can form from both igneous and sedimentary rocks
