Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Erosion, compaction, and sedimentation are processes related to the formation of sedimentary rocks, as these rocks are formed from compressed and cemented sediment. Basaltic, metamorphic, and igneous rocks are not directly formed through these processes. Intrusive rocks are formed from solidification of magma beneath Earth's surface and are not directly related to erosion, compaction, and sedimentation.
