Which list best describes the events that would lead to the layering of sedimentary rocks in this diagram?

1 answer:

5 0

I couldn't find a diagram but was able to find the terms erosion and deposition and using these terms, first there is erosion or the wearing away away of the rock in place be it pre-existing igneous, sedimentary or metamorphic rock, then transportation often to a delta or flood-plain or basin, and then deposition of sand silt and clay and then consolidation into rock and diagenesis which involves compaction and the removal of water.
