Moraines, erratic blocks and clay with flints are some.
Sediments produced by plants and animals in the sea are called biogenic sediments. These sediments are composed of organic remains, such as shells, corals, and skeletal debris, which accumulate on the seafloor over time.
Mostly By water from river.... than Air, Glaciers etc.
Glacial deposits may form when glaciers move along mountains and break off sediments. These deposits can include a variety of sediment types such as till, moraines, and erratic boulders. As the glacier moves, it erodes and transports these sediments, eventually depositing them once the glacier melts.
Sediments have been transported over time through various natural processes such as erosion, weathering, and transportation by wind, water, glaciers, or gravity. These processes can move sediments from one location to another, shaping landscapes and depositing sediments in different environments. Eventually, these sediments can be compacted and cemented together to form sedimentary rocks.
Glaciers are large bodies of ice that move slowly over the land. In Canada, glaciers have carved out landscapes, forming valleys, lakes, and mountains. They have also deposited sediments, shaping the country's terrain and contributing to its rich biodiversity.
Sediments in sedimentary rock can be transported by wind, water, or glaciers
Glaciers
Glaciers can carry sediments through a process called erosion, where they pick up rock fragments and soil as they move. When glaciers deposit these sediments in new locations, it is considered a deposition process, contributing to landform formation.

Water can deposit sediment such as sand, silt, and clay. Wind can deposit smaller particles like sand and dust. Melting glaciers can deposit a mixture of rocks, sediments, and debris known as moraines.

When glaciers move, they erode the land beneath them by scraping and plucking rocks and sediments. This process can create valleys, fjords, and other landforms. Additionally, as glaciers melt and retreat, they deposit the sediments and rocks they have carried with them, shaping the landscape further.
Sediments can be picked up by water, wind, or ice. Water can transport sediments in rivers, streams, and oceans, while wind can carry sediments in the form of dust or sand. Ice, through processes like glaciers, can also transport sediments across landscapes.
Biogeneous sediments
When glaciers advance or retreat, the sediments left behind create a moraine. Drumlins are created by the flow of glaciers that mold sediment into streamlined, elongated hills.
