Answer:

Sedimentary rock

Explanation:

The Coquina rock is a sedimentary rock that is comprised of broken fragments of the shells of ancient trilobites, invertebrates, and brachiopods. When the sediments were deposited, and shells were also added on it, they have undergone compaction and lithification, as a result of which these rocks were formed. They are generally classified as the soft limestone rocks, that are typically formed in the marine and lacustrine environments, where the flow energy is very high.

Thus, Coquina is a sedimentary limestone rock.

In which Colorado Rockies scenario was there more erosion? Why was there more erosion in the scenario?
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

There was more erosion in the Colorado Rockies scenario where there was steady rain compared to the scenario in the same area where there was only a drizzle. There is more erosion because the steady rain increased the volume of the river more than the drizzle did. Because there was more water added to the river, the river flowed faster. The faster a river flows, the more sediments it transports or erodes.
