Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Sedimentary - A rock formed as a result of the weathering process, either by compaction and cementation of rock mineral fragments, or the precipitation of dissolved minerals.

Metamorphic - These rocks form as existing rocks are subjected to intense heat and/or pressure, usually over long periods of time.
