question:
which process forms evaporites?
answer options:
select one of four
lithification
crystallization
sedimentation
weathering
Brief Explanations
Evaporites are formed when water evaporates from a solution (like saltwater), and dissolved minerals crystallize out. Lithification is turning sediments to rock, sedimentation is settling of sediments, and weathering is breaking down rocks. Crystallization from evaporation of water in a solution (like in salt flats) forms evaporites.
