Which processes support the relationship between sediments and sedimentary rock in the rock cycle? Check all that apply. Sediments accumulate and combine. Sediments undergo heat and pressure. Sedimentary rock weathers and erodes. Sediments compact and cement together. Sedimentary rock experiences cooling and melting.

Sediments are rocks that undergo cycles which is 1: they combine and accumulate. 2: They go through weather and erode. 3: They compact and cement. Hope this helps, you're welcome

Answer: Sediments accumulate and combine

Sedimentary rocks weathers and erode

Sediments compact and cement together

When the weathering and erosion of the rocks occurs sediments are formed. These sediments accumulate and combine in different stratified layers to form the sedimentary rocks under pressure. These sediments gets cemented and the particles compact to obtain a solid physical appearance of the rock. These sedimentary rocks when exposed to weathering agents like wind, air and chemicals gets weathered and eroded again into sediments.
