Question 3 of 15
Which feature of sedimentary rock is measured by the Wentworth scale of
grain size?
OA. Stratification
B. Sorting
OC. Composition
OD. Texture



Answer :

The Wentworth scale of grain size in sedimentary rocks measures: - B. Sorting Sorting refers to the uniformity of grain sizes within a sedimentary rock. Rocks with well-sorted grains have particles that are similar in size, while poorly-sorted rocks have a mix of different grain sizes. The Wentworth scale helps geologists classify the sorting of sedimentary rocks based on the range of grain sizes present in the rock.
