उत्तर
Lithification
Explanation:
Lithification is the process that turns loose sediments into solid rock. It involves both compaction and cementation, where layers of sediments are compressed under pressure and minerals fill the spaces between particles, binding them together. This entire process transforms loose, unconsolidated sediments into hard, coherent sedimentary rock, making lithification the correct answer.
