Respuesta :

The answer is: both rock A and rock B are sedimentary rocks

The correct answer is Rock A is a sedimentary rock and Rock B is an igneous rock.

Sedimentary rocks are made out of compacted sediment and debris, such as rocks, minerals, fossils, etc. The particles are cemented to form sedimentary rocks.

Igneous rocks are rocks made out of molten material that has solidified. This can happen above or under the surface of Earth.
