What is sedimentary rock?

Sedimentary rocks are formed from deep down deposits of previously existing rocks. It is also made up of remains of living organisms that accumulate on the Earth's surface. If this sediment is buried deeply towards the Earth's crust,  it becomes compacted and cemented resulting in sedimentary rock.

The diagram below shows different layers of sedimentary rocks.

Layer G is formed before F. Layer F is formed before E. Layer E is formed before D. Layer D is formed before C. Layer C is formed before B. Lastly on the top surface of Earth, Layer B is formed before A. Layer A is the topmost layer of all.

Thus, Layer F was formed earlier than Layer A.
