Answer:
- Weathering
- erosion and transportation
- sedimentation
- Lithification
Explanation:
It begins by rocks being weathered into soil by weathering agents such as water and the sun. The soil is then eroded into rivers by surface runoffs after precipitation. The soil is then transported by the river into water bodies where they fall to the bed as sediments. As the sediments stay long and more sediments settle, applying pressure to the underlying layers, they compact into the sedimentary rock in a process called Lithification.
