Question 18 • Skelton - GSN - Earth Science - SC3207 IC
Clastic sedimentary rocks form from pieces of preexisting rocks that are compacted and cemented together. They are commonly classified by the size of those rock fragments, such as whether the grains are gravel-, sand-, or mud-sized. Therefore, “grouped by size of rock fragments” is correct; rocks formed from dead plants and animals are organic sedimentary rocks.
