Question

name: maya koo which process most likely formed a layer of the sedimentary rock, gypsum? a) melting of sand - sized particles b) folding of clay - sized particles c) precipitation from seawater d) solidification of magma

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Gypsum is a sedimentary rock formed by the precipitation of minerals from seawater as the water evaporates. Sand - sized particles melting is not how gypsum forms. Folding of clay - sized particles is related to structural changes in rocks, not gypsum formation. Solidification of magma forms igneous rocks, not sedimentary gypsum.

Answer:

C) precipitation from seawater
