A Disconformity, an unconformity between parallel layers of sedimentary rocks which represents a period of erosion or non-deposition.
Types of Disconformity:
A Paraconformity is a type in which the separation is a simple bedding plane; i.e., there is no obvious buried erosional surface.
A Blended unconformity is a type with no distinct separation plane or contact, sometimes consisting of soils, paleosols, or beds of pebbles derived from the underlying rock.
During deposition, larger particles usually settle to the bottom faster than smaller particles do.When turbidity currents reach the deep ocean floor, the slope decreases. The current decreases and the largest, most dense sediments are deposited first. This process is called vertical sorting, which results in graded bedding.
The process of pressing sediments is called compaction. The process that results in the layers being stuck together is called cementation.
Weathering breakdown of rocks into smaller pieces sediments results in the formation sedimentary rocks.
Horizontal shearing at tectonic plate boundaries results in a special type of strike slip fault known as a transform fault.
true
Layers of sand and other sediments are deposited by the action of wind and water. These layers build deeper over the centuries until the weight of all the top layers results in huge pressure on the lower layers squeezing all the various sediments together into a solid layer of rock.

Incorrect horizontal angulation will result in overlapped contacts.

The transport media that generally results in the most well-sorted sediments is wind. Other transport media include rivers, glaciers and landslides.

my pregnancy test positive result should be vertical but is horizontal

because it goes into our nose and deposited in trachea and results in death.
Sedimentation as a method of water purification results in the sediments settling at the bottom and the purified water resting on the top.
Up and Down is vertical and Left and Right is Horizontal
