When the flow of a river slows is the sediment deposited?
Yes, when the flow of a river slows the sediment is deposited.
when the flow of a river does what the sediment is deposited?
The flow of water slows enough for the silt to be deposited.
Is this true or false When a river slows down and deposits its sediment load smaller particles of sediment are deposited first?
true
How does speed affect where or how sediments are deposited?
The greater the speed the less sediment deposited. A delta is where a river slows way down and sediment is deposited at the mouth of the river.
The heavy minerals deposited where the river current slows down are called?
Minerals deposited by a river are called silt.
When the flow of a river slows is the sediment deposited?
Yes, when the flow of a river slows the sediment is deposited.
when the flow of a river does what the sediment is deposited?
The flow of water slows enough for the silt to be deposited.
When a river slows down what types of sediment will be deposited first why?
The heaviest sediment will always be deposited first. Which sediment is the heaviest in that flowage can vary widely.
When a river slows down and deposits its sediment load smaller particles of sediment are deposited first. True or False?
True

true

When a river slows down and deposits its sediment load smaller particles of sediment are deposited first?
No, the heavier are deposited first and then the medium ones and lastly the very smallest (sand). This can be seen clearly when you look at what are called out washed plains.

When a river slows down and deposits its sediment load smaller particles of sediment are deposed first true or false?
True
when a river slows down what does it do to the sediment its carrying?
As a river flow slows, the sediment starts to settle out. The water at the river's edge often has the lowest flow or movement so there will be more sedimentation.
The heavy minerals deposited where the river current slows down are called?
Minerals deposited by a river are called silt.
Which earth materials are deposited first as the water in a river slows down?
Larger particles are deposited first as a stream loses velocity. Gravel would be deposited first, since it is the largest (out of Clay, Silt, Sand, and Gravel)
