The breakdown of rock into smaller particles from the effects of wind, water and ice

• erosion
• cementation 2*
• pressure
• weathering

Rock made of layers of compressed sediments

• metamorphic rock
• igneous rock
• sedimentary rock
• school house rock

Wind, water, ice and gravity carry sediments away

• weathering*
• deposition
