The answers would be:

Sedimentary Rocks - They are made from weathered pieces of rock.

Sedimentary rocks are formed from weathered pieces of rock. These pieces are called <u>sediments</u>. They can also be made out of other material. When these sediments settle, it continues to do so until so much sediment accumulate and they start to press down on each other. The sediments then start to go through compaction and sedimentation which for a sedimentary rock.

Metamorphic rocks form under heat and pressure. They are squeezed and shaped and go through <u>metamorphosis </u>or go through change. A metamorphic rock can be formed from any other type of rock as long as it goes through changes due to intense pressure and/or heat.
