Arrange the processes to show the order in which sedimentary rock are formed.



3. deposition

-
a. weathering
b. lithification
c. erosion and transportation
d. sedimentation

Explanation:

There are majorly five steps involved in the formation of sedimentary rocks -

a) Weathering - At this stage the pre-existing rocks are broken down by natural forces.

b) Erosion and transportation - The weathered rock pieces or soil is carried by air, water , ice (glaciers) etc. for deposition at any place

c) Deposition -  At this stage, the carried away soil and smaller rock fragments are dumped at one place for piling up

d) Lithification - This stage consists of two steps a) Compaction and b) Cementation

In compaction , excess water is expelled out of piled up materials by the virtue of their own weight and in cementation chemical forces build up to form sediment deposits.

Hence the correct order of sedimentary rock formation is
