Question

Granite has only recently been exposed at a location on Earth’s surface. What will need to happen first in order for granite to become sedimentary rock?

Answers:
1. Weathering and erosion must move pieces of granite to other locations.

2. The granite must be melted and then slowly cooled again.

Answer 1

1 weathering and erosion must move pieces of granite to other locations

Step-by-step explanation:

A thick layer of humus must form on top of the granite. The granite must be broken into smaller pieces by weathering processes. Erosion by wind and water must move pieces of granite to other locations.
