Where does the dirt that covers or forms over the fossils in the strata of the earth come from?
The sediments are usually carried by water or are particles that settle out of water, but the sediments could be windblown.
What are sediments how are they involved in the formation of fossil?
Sediments are tiny pieces of earth that travel by being carried by either wind, water, or ice. they are involved with the process of fossils since it covers and buries an organism when it dies and eventually settle under great amounts of heat and pressure.
What Sediments can be picked by?
Sediments can be picked up by wind, and water.
What sediments float in water?
What sediment float in the water
When water loses this the water deposits its sediments?
Energy of motion
What kind of sediments settle out during waste water treatment?
my face
What do we call materials that settle out of water?
These materials are sediments.

Where does a River erode sediment?
sediments are transported by ocean rift, streams, river currents, wind (air). they are deposited according to size. The largest sediments are deposited first. The sediments settle into the sand and are carried by the stream. Near the mouth of the stream where the water moves slowly the small sediments settle out. The larger sediments get carried by the river into the sea then the samller sediments. The sea water dissolved minerals and soak the sediments and cement together. This eventually forms sediments.
Why do settle out of flowing water as it slows down?
Because it has less energy and can carry less sediments.
Why do sediment settle out of flowing water as it slows down?
Because it has less energy and can carry less sediments.
Which sediments would a stream carry at 5 cm?
In a stream, heavy sediments settle quickly and finer sediments stay suspended in the water and get carried down stream farther, even as the stream shrinks in size.
How is suspended sediments removed from a completely mixed tank?
Assuming the liquid is water - add a flocculant (eg; Alum) and allow the sediment to settle.
How do sediments settle from the river?
fast curents carry soil. heavier soil falls to bed of river where water tends to slow down.
What does sedimentation mean?
It means that a substance that is insoluble has settled to a lower level.
What is vertical sorting?
Vertical sorting is alignment of sediments in vertical position. Vertical sorting is alignment of sediments in vertical position. the sedimentation of mixed particles in order of big, medium, small
Why water in reservoirs is stored for several years before further treatment?
to allow wast to settle out naturally
