Step-by-step explanation:

Non - clastic sedimentary rocks are formed by precipitation of the minerals from the ocean water or from the breakdown of the bones and shells of sea species . Sea animals like the corals produces calcium carbonate solutions which solidifies to form rock .

Since the chemicals from the biological or mineral precipitation get mixed along with the sediments in the lake or ocean , which crystallize and grows , and finally forms a rock .
