Sedimentary rocks form by breaking down other kinds of rocks into small particles and washing or blowing them away; metamorphic rocks form from other rocks and igneous rocks form by melting other rocks. Thus rocks are always changing form and are redistributted as part of a giant cycle of renewal.

Answer:

Sedimentary rocks are formed on or near the Earth’s surface, in contrast to metamorphic and igneous rocks, which are formed deep within the Earth. The most important geological processes that lead to the creation of sedimentary rocks are erosion, weathering, dissolution, precipitation, and lithification.

Erosion and weathering include the effects of wind and rain, which slowly break down large rocks into smaller ones. Erosion and weathering transform boulders and even mountains into sediments, such as sand or mud. Dissolution is a form of weathering—chemical weathering. With this process, water that is slightly acidic slowly wears away stone. These three processes create the raw materials for new, sedimentary rocks.

Maybe there's an app for that? Some kind of time lapse app? Or maybe set up a magnifying glass or a crystal ball on a stand and a piece of paper under it. As the sun passes, it will might burn a line on the page. As to how you would read this line, you would need some kind of measurement system - maybe do a baseline the day before and use you watch to record start and finish times.

Which of the following provinces did not ratify the canadaian constitution after canada gained complete indpendence
raketka [301]
The Canadian province that did not ratify the Canadian constitution act after Canada gained complete independence was Quebec. Historically Quebec has been a French territory, unlike the other Canadian provinces that were English territories. The different backgrounds, relations and cultural differences, as well as Quebec's ambition to become a separate country, were all reasons for this province to not ratify the Canadian constitution act.
