Question
the diagram below is a model of the rock cycle. the diagram shows how one type of rock can change into another type of rock. select the sediment.
In the rock cycle, sediment is formed from weathering and erosion of rocks and appears as loose, fragmented material. Looking at the diagram, the box with the image of loose, granular material (likely sediment) is the one connected by "weathering and erosion" arrows and leads to sedimentation (which forms sedimentary rock). The bottom - middle box (with the image of what looks like sediment) is the sediment as it's the product of weathering/erosion and precursor to sedimentary rock formation.
