ANSWER :
The type of rock that is formed from sediments being compressed and squeezed is called as Sedimentary Rocks .
Explanation:
The formation of Sediment rock is carried out by breaking apart of other rocks ( metamorphic ,sedimentary or igneous rocks ) and compaction, recrystallization and cementation of the broken rock pieces. Thus Sedimentary rocks are formed from broken rocks.
The root wood of sedimentary is sediments . Formation of Sedimentary rocks are usually takes place in water. Rivers and streams brings sediments with their current. When the river flow into another river, lake or ocean, the speed of the current becomes slow. During this time the sediments falls out due to gravity. The larger sediments falls first followed lighter sediments .
