The correct answer is option C.
Loose sediments become sedimentary rock by compaction and cementation.
Sedimentary rocks are composed of sediment fragments or remains of dead organisms which are collected and accumulated over time and then transformed into rocks under extreme temperature and pressure.
The deposits of these rocks are found on the surface of the earth which convert into distinctive layers when older rocks retain below the new rock deposits.
The distinctive layers of sedimentary rocks are called bedding and are exposed by natural processes such as erosion, weathering and deformation.
