I gave my students this multiple choice question: Which is the correct order in the process of sedimentary rock formation?

Only one answer is correct among these 4 choices:
- compaction, erosion, cementation, deposition
- compaction, weathering, erosion, cementation
- weathering, deposition, cementation, burial
- weathering, erosion, deposition, compaction

Could you tell me which one is correct?

weathering, erosion, deposition, compaction
