What type of sediment can be found far from its source?
Smaller sediment, such as silt and clay. It is smaller, so it can be carried higher into stronger winds, which blow the small sediment far from its source.
Explain thorium as a type of radiation source?
The natural isotope 232Th is an alpha particles emitter but it is not important and it is not used as a source of radiations.
Which type of ocean floor sediment is biological in origin?
Biogenous
What type of rock can wear away to form sediment?
Any rock can wear away to form sediment; be it sedimentary, metamorphic or igneous.
What type of water are fossils mostly found in?
Fossils are not found in water, but rather in the sediment deposits which includes the bottom of a body of water. Fossils are especially prevalent in shallow marine environments where they may become well preserved.
Which type of sediment can be found far from its source?
Dragonfable Rocks

What type of rock would fossils most likely likely be found in?
Sediment
What type of organisms are found in sandstone?
They are usally used when you build buildings and compose the sediment
What causes Amorphous sediment in urine?
Amorphous sediment in urine are things like crystal phosphates, uric acid stones or calcium stones that are found in the urine. Certain amorphous sediment found in urine is normal. The cause of amorphous sediment depends on the type of sediment. For instance, uric acid stones can be caused from not drinking enough liquids.
Which type of sediment settles fastest or slowest?
which type of sediment settles fastest? slowest?
Are manganese nodules examples of biogenous sediment?
No. It is a type of Hydrogenous sediment.
What type of the sediment forms from minerals that crystallize from seawater?
hydrogenous sediment
Explain thorium as a type of radiation source?
The natural isotope 232Th is an alpha particles emitter but it is not important and it is not used as a source of radiations.
Where does sea sediment Jasper come from?
Sea sediment jasper is a type of jasper that is often found near the shores of oceans, where sediments have accumulated over time. The unique patterns and colors in sea sediment jasper are a result of different minerals and compounds being deposited in the sediment layers that eventually solidify into jasper.
What type of sediment represents a relatively small portion of the overall sediment in the ocean?
hydrogenous
What type of sediment forms from mineral that crystallize from seawater?
not a hydrogenous sediment?
