LAB
EXERCISES
Using
the
sedimentary
structures
provided
in
the
lab,
fill
in
the
table
below.
For
each
sample,
identify
the
sedimentary
rock.
Use
the
illustrations
in
this
lab
to
identify
the
sedimentary
structure.
Note
that
some
lab
specimens
may
have
more
than
one
sedimentary
structure,
such
as
both
laminations
and
burrows,
or
bur-
rows
and
ripple
marks.
Use
the
Summary
page
to
determine
whether
the
sedimentary
structure
formed
through
inorganic
processes
or
biogenic
processes.
If
there
is
more
than
one
sedimentary
structure,
there
may
be
more
than
one
answer.
Finally,
using
what
you
learned
in
this
lab, try
to
interpret
the
environment
in
which
the
sedimentary
structure(s)
formed.
If
the
structure
forms
in
moving
wind
or
water,
indicate
that
and
interpret
whether
wave
or
current
motion
may
have been
involved.
The
environment
of
deposition
may
have been
a
river
or
beach.
If
the
structure
forms
as
mud
dries,
the
environ-
ment
of
deposition
may
have
been
a
lake
or
tidal
flat.
