The sediments that make up this rock are well sorted. d. Many of the clasts in this rock have rounded edges.

Answer 1

Answer: Option A and D can best describe conglomerate sedimentary rock.

Explanation: Conglomerate sedimentary rock is a clastic sedimentary rock that contains large round clasts. The round shape is as a result of several turning from some distance by running water or waves during weathering. From the explanation of the conglomerate sedimentary rock we can say option "A" is true because the rock has large clasts coming together to form the rock, option "D" is also true because of the round edge characteristics / properties of the clast.
