What is a type of rock made from fragments or sediments compacted or cemented together?

Answers:

sandstone, shale, limestone,Conglomerates, breccias and more.

Explanation:

sediments are loose materials, such as rock fragments, mineral grains, and the remains of once living plants and animals, that are formed by weathering and erosion, and have been moved by wind, water, ice, or gravity

sedimentary rocks:forms when sediments are compacted and cemented together, when minerals form from solutions, or when water evaporates leaving crystals behind. The sediments in sedimentary rock are often held together with natural cements. Examples of sedimentary rocks include sandstone, limestone, and rock salt.

detrital sedimentary rocks:These are made from the broken fragments of other rocks. These loose fragments are compacted and cemented together to form solid rock. Detrital sedimentary rocks are named according to the shape and size of the sediments that form them. Shale, siltstone, sandstone, and conglomerate are examples.

organic sedimentary rocks: are sedimentary rocks made from the remains of once-living things. One of the most common organic sedimentary rocks is fossilrich limestone. Animals such as mussels, clams, corals, and snails make their shells from CaCo3 which eventually becomes calcite. When they die their shells accumulate on the ocean floor and are cemented together into fossil-rich limestone. Examples include fossil-rich limestone, coal, and chalk.

chemical sedimentary rocks: are chemical sedimentary rock forms when dissolved minerals come out of solution. For example, when lakes or seas evaporate. These rocks are not made from existing rocks like many other sedimentary rocks. Examples include gypsum, limestone, and rock salt.

cementation sedimentary rock forming process in which sediment grains are held together by natural cements that are produced when water moves through rock and soil.

conglomerate a type of detrital sedimentary rock that forms from large rounded sediments over 2mm in size. The roundness of sediment particles depends on how far they have been moved by wind or water. Breccia differs from conglomerate because one has rounded sediments and one has sediments with sharp angles.

breccia a type of detrital sedimentary rock that forms from large sediments with sharp angles that are over 2mm in size. The roundness of sediment particles depends on how far they have been moved by wind or water. Breccia differs from conglomerate because one has rounded sediments and one has sediments with sharp angles.
