Drag each process to the matching part of the diagram.

Draggable item		Corresponding Item
Erosion carries sediment from original place		first
weathering breaks down rock into smaller sediments		second
Cementation glues or cements the layers of sediment together creating sedimentary rock		third
Compaction presses layers of sediment together		fourth
Deposition drops the sediment in new locations		last
