Limestone turns to this metamorphic rock through metamorphoses.
What is marble?

State the difference between deposition, compaction, and cementation.
What is deposition is the placement of sediment in one area, compaction is the sediments coming closer together, and cementation is the dissolving of smaller particles inbetween the sediments like cement.
