What Sediments can be picked by?
Sediments can be picked up by wind, and water.
In what ways are sediments transported?
By water or wind
How are sediments moved about?
Mostly By water from river.... than Air, Glaciers etc.
How is sediment created?
Sediments are deposited on to other sediments and immense heat and pressure turn the sediments into a rock
How can a igneous and metamorphic rock turn into sediments?
Igneous and metamorphic rock can be turned into sediments through weathering and erosion. For example: wind, water, and gravity.
Sediments left behind by moving wind or water?
sediments left behind by moving water or wind
What Sediments can be picked by?
Sediments can be picked up by wind, and water.
Sediments can be picked up by what?
Sediments can be picked up by wind, and water.
In what ways are sediments transported?
By water or wind
What can be carried away by wind or water?
Loose sediments can be carried by wind, water, or ice.
Which factor can transport sediments?
Sediments in sedimentary rock can be transported by wind, water, or glaciers
Breaks down rocks into sediments?
Wind and water
What is a natural carrier of sediments?
Water, wind, and ice.
What are the three ways that wind erosion moves sediments?
Water, wind, and ice.
What do sediments tend to from when transported by water and wind?
unsorted deposits
What are the materials deposited by water wind and melting glaciers?
sediments
What is a brief summary of the section charateristics of clastic sediment in the Earth space science book?
Is determined by the way the sediments were transported to the place where they are deposited. Sediments have four main transported agents: Wind, Water, Gravity, and Ice. Sediments particles size can be carried and the distance is determined by the speed of that particle. Both the the distance of the sediments and the sediments agents determines the characteristics of that sediment.
