How could a scientist use a sedimentary rock to provide evidence that the right k cycle is a valid scientific model

By closely observing the sedimentary rock and the presence of organic materials and mineral grains in sedimentary rocks

Explanation:

The rock cycle explains how the three types of rock are formed over time from each other.

To use a sedimentary rock to prove that the rock cycle is a valid scientific model is by, closely observing the sedimentary rock. when the sedimentary rock is closed observed the principle of superposition will be seen ( i.e. younger segments deposited on top ), the presence of organic materials and mineral grains that can be found in Igneous or Metamorphic rocks can also be seen and this shows that Sedimentary rocks pass through the rock cycle. hence this proves that the rock cycle is a valid scientific model overtime  

a rain shadow is a dry region of land on the side that is protected against the prevailing winds of a mountain range. the prevailing winds are the winds that occur most of the time in a particular place of the earth

prevailing winds carry air toward the mountain range. as the air rises up over a mountain range, the air cools, water vapor condenses, and clouds form. on this side of the mountains, called the windward side, precipitation falls in the form of  rain  or snow. this dry air produces a  rain shadow.
