Explanation:
The calcareous ooze is formed by the 30% of the microscopic shells that a known as the tests and are formed by the foraminifera, coccolithophores, and pteropods, which are most common sediments on the seafloor by area and cover about 50 % of the oceanic floor. And can be converted to stone by the process of compaction and cementation and re-crystallization.
