The events describe the formation of an underwater sedimentary rock. Place the events in chronological order.
After many years, the deposits
turn into a hard, solid rock.
The new rock is an aggregate
of several kinds of inorganic and
organic materials.
A gluing substance, such as
calcite or clay, carried in by
flowing water begins binding
the deposited material together.
The deposits begin to harden.
Weathering breaks existing
rocks into sediments.
Sediments and skeletal
remains of marine animals
begin depositing in a basin.
