Sandstone is the correct answer because it is a type of sedimentary rock formed from the compaction of sands and other small grains. Option A, Granite, is a type of igneous rock formed from the cooling and solidification of molten magma. Option C, Basalt, is also an igneous rock formed from the rapid cooling of lava. Option D, Limestone, is a type of sedimentary rock formed from the accumulation and compression of organic materials like shells and coral. Therefore, only option B accurately describes a rock formed from the compaction of sediment.
