Sedimentary rocks are formed due to the A.) changes in temperature B.) cooling of magma C.) changes in pressure D.) weathering of rocks

I would say D. One of the processes of mechanical weathering, hydration, involves water causing granular disintegration of rocks, creating sediments.

OpenStudy (alexandervonhumboldt2):

OpenStudy (bamboo888):

Sedimentary rocks are formed when sediment is deposited out of air, ice, wind, gravity, or water flows carrying the particles in suspension. This sediment is often formed when weathering and erosion break down a rock into loose material in a source area.
