Traction : Larger objects (eg. boulders, rocks) roll along the river bed.
Suspension : Minerals like clay or sand are carried alone the river without any contact with the river bed.
Solution : Rocks and gravel bounce along the river bed
Saltation : The water dissolves minerals like calcium in the water which become invisible to the naked eye.

Is suspension a true solution?
A solution is a homogeneous liquid, a suspension is not homogeneous. A suspension is not a true solution.

What are forms of transportation on rivers?
1. Solution 2. Suspension 3. Saltation 4. Traction
What transport processes would likely dominate a muddy stream A solution B traction C saltation D suspension E abrasion?
abrasion
What is saltation geography?
Saltation is when small pebbles and stones bounce along the river bed. this is one type river transportation, the other two are traction and suspension.
What type of transport mechanism forms ripples and dunes composed of sand grains?
traction, saltation and suspension
Types of deposits?
The four types of deposits are: Recurring, Fixed, Savings and Current Savings. Deposits refer to the summary or total of the money kept or place in a bank account.
Calcium is carried in water by a process known as A. flotation. B. solution.C. suspension D. traction.?
the answer is B. solution
What are the two types of deposition?
your question is not clear as it is,and i tend to think you meant depositional environments.in case of deposition environments we have;continental(fluvial,aeolian,alluvial),transitional environment (lagoons,beach),marine environment (reef,shallow and deep marine) and glacial environment.
What is the movement called that bounces rocks on the river bed?
Saltation-smaller rocks and stones. Traction-larger rocks and boulders.
Is sea water a solution suspension or colloids?
seawater solution or suspension
Is suspension a true solution?
A solution is a homogeneous liquid, a suspension is not homogeneous. A suspension is not a true solution.
How and why does the load transported by river vary?
The load in a river can be transported in 4 ways. The first is Traction. It is when rocks and boulders are rolled along the river bed by the force of the water. The second is Saltation this is when stones and pebbles are bounced along the river bed. The third is Suspension this is when fine particles like silt floot along in the water. The last is Solution which is when the material dissolves in the water. These different methods are used depending on the size of the load to be transported and the energy of the river. A river needs little energy to transport a small mineral by solution but lots of energy to transport heavy boulders it by traction.
Is orange juice a solution or suspension?
Orange juice from concentrate would be a solution, although real orange juice is neither a solution or a suspension. The major difference between solution and suspension is that a solution is a homogeneous mixture, and a suspension is heterogeneous.
