Sedimentary Rocks are found here

On or near the Earths surface close to bodies of water

500

Sedimentary rocks are often smooth and rounded if they have been here

What is moving water

500

Weathering is a key component to creating this type of rock

Difference between weathering and erosion

Weathering breaks rocks down into sediments, erosion moves sediments
