• Burial

• Deposition

• Sediments

• Erosion

When blank becomes blank together they form blank.

occurs when minerals in a rock are dissolved or chemically changed & that causes the minerals that are not dissolved to break off.

• Physical weathering

No chemical change, the rock fragments just break off.

• Lithification

• Erosion

• Physical weathering

• Bedding

Weathering produces blank sediments.
