b. Erosion, deposition, transportation, cementation c. Erosion, transportation, deposition, metamorphism d. Precipitation, settling, compaction, cementation

Respuesta :

The Correct order of  formation of clastic sedimentary rock (a). Erosion, transportation, deposition, cementation.

The formation of sedimentary rocks involves the accumulation or deposition of mineral or organic particles at the Earth's surface, followed by cementation. The mechanisms that lead to the accumulation of these particles are collectively referred to as sedimentation.

Sediment refers to the little particles that make up sedimentary rocks and can be either geological detritus (minerals) or biological detritus (organic matter).

The weathering and erosion of pre-existing rocks or the solidification of molten lava blobs released by volcanoes are the two main causes of the geological debris.  The geological detritus is transported to the place of deposition by water, wind, ice or mass movement, which are called agents of denudation.
