What are sediments?

• Rocks

• Moving from one place to another

• Small broken down pieces of rock

• Another word for cemetery

What is weathering?

• Moving to another place

• The breaking down of rock into smaller pieces.

• Small pieces of rock

Metamorphic rock transforms to sediment by _________

• Weathering and erosion

• Melting and cooling

• Heat and pressure

• Cementation and compaction

What is erosion?

• Breaking down of rock

• Rocks getting wiped away

• Occurs when rocks and sediments are picked up and moved to another place by water, ice, wind, or gravity.

• Squeezing sediments together

What is deposition?

• Dunes that get deposited by sand and wind.

• Gluing sediments together

• heat and pressure

• Occurs when sediments that have been eroded are deposited into a new location.

What is compaction and cementation?

• First the cooling process then the heating process.

• First squeezing sediments together, then gluing the sediments together into one big rock.

• First the heating process then the cooling process.

• The process of weathering and erosion.
