AS REPORTEDno primary record reached; this is what the reporting says
Is it true that sedimentary rocks are formed through the compression and hardening of sediment particles transported by wind and water?
Yes. Sedimentary rocks are formed when sediment particles—transported by agents like wind and water—accumulate and undergo compaction and cementation over time.
