When sediments are squeezed together due to pressure what is that called?
When sediments are squeezed together due to pressure, it forms sedimentary rock through the process of lithification. This involves compaction and cementation of the sediments under pressure, which ultimately leads to the formation of solid rock.
What types of two rocks form when material is squeezed together?
Sedimentary rocks such as sandstone and shale can form when materials are squeezed together due to pressure from overlying sediments and compaction. Igneous rocks can also form from intense pressure transforming existing rocks, such as with the formation of gneiss from granite under high pressure and temperature conditions.
When sediments are squeezed together by the weight of sediments and rocks on top of them what is it called?
pp
Are sedimentary rocks formed when sediments are compacted by extreme pressure?
Clastic and organic sedimentary rocks like conglomerate, coal, some limestones, and shale, are formed under pressure from overlying sediments.
What type of rock can be heated and squeezed and be converted to a metamorphic rock?
Any type of rock, such as sandstone, shale, limestone, or granite, can be heated and squeezed under high pressure to transform into a metamorphic rock. The intensity of heat and pressure will determine the specific type of metamorphic rock that forms.

What is squeezed out from sediments as it gets compressed?
Penis
How is rubbber made into tires?
It is melted and squeezed into moulds under pressure and heat.
Did demi scacth herself because she was under pressure?
no her braclets her to tight and they squeezed her veins and left a mark
When layers of sediments Are Squeezed Together To Form Rocks Is Called?
It is called sedimentary rock.
To which group of rock does marble belong?
Marble is a metamorphic rock because it is formed from limestone that has been squeezed under pressure.
When sediments are slowly changed to rock what forces the sediments together?
Pressure of water and other sediments.
How are sediments joined up to form rocks?
Sediments produced from weathering and erosion are deposited in still environments, compacted by the weight of additional sediments and cemented by minerals that are present in the water that is being squeezed out between sediment particles.
Three ways in which sedimentary rocks differ from other rocks?
Sedimentary rocks are made up of materials that were once part of another rock. Most sediments are deposited on ocean floors or at the bottom of rivers and lakes.Clastic sedimentary rocks form from layers of sediments. Pressure causes the water around the sediments to be squeezed out and the sediments are cemented together.
What is the function of grease in machinery?
The function of grease is to remain in contact with and lubricate moving surfaces without leaking out under gravity or centrifugal action, or be squeezed out under pressure.
Are sedimentary rocks formed when sediments are compacted by extreme pressure?
Clastic and organic sedimentary rocks like conglomerate, coal, some limestones, and shale, are formed under pressure from overlying sediments.
