Sedimentary Rock

Real World Example

Imagine you're trying to clean out your cluttered closet, where over the years, clothes, shoes, and boxes have piled up, layer upon layer. This is similar to how sedimentary rocks form, as layers of sediment like mud, sand, and small stones accumulate over time. Just as you might press down and organize these items to fit them neatly into your closet, nature presses and cements these sediment layers together over millions of years, creating sedimentary rock.
