What is The part of the ocean that extends from the high tide line to the low tide line?
nertic
How do lithogenous sediments differ from biogenous sediments?
Lithogenous sediments come from the land They result primarily from erosion by water, wind, and ice Biogenous sediments originate from organisms The particles in these sediments come from shells and hard skeletons. Although lithogenous sediments represent the largest total volume, biogenous sediments cover a greater area of sea floor
What Sediments can be picked by?
Sediments can be picked up by wind, and water.
How is sediment created?
Sediments are deposited on to other sediments and immense heat and pressure turn the sediments into a rock

marine life
What are the three types of the ocean floor sediments?

What is the difference between sediments in the outwash and sediments in the moraines?

What is The part of the ocean that extends from the high tide line to the low tide line?

When sediments are slowly changed to rock what forces the sediments together?
Pressure of water and other sediments.
What is deposition in weathering?
