Answer:

Cementation

Erosion

Step-by-step explanation:

Cementation refers to hardening and welding of those sediments which are formed from preexisting rock fragments as a result of the precipitation of mineral matter in the spaces between the pore. The last stage in the formation of a sedimentary rock is Cementation.

Erosion is the geological process in which soil, rock, or dissolved material are worn away and transported from one location to another location by natural forces such as wind or water.

The two parts of sedimentary rock formation which include the breakdown and carrying away of existing rock are cementation and erosion.
