Sedimentary rocks have streaks of different colors within them. These streaks within the rock are different layers of sediment from Earth. The sediment is created by physical, chemical, or biological weathering. The sediment is then moved to a different location within Earth’s crust by water or wind. When the sediment is moved, this is called erosion. Eventually, deposition occurs when the sediment settles, and compaction (and cementation) turns the sediment into rock. This is how different horizontal layers can be seen within the sedimentary rock.
