What has happen to sediment in order for it to become sedimentary rock?
um ok
When is sediment deposited in bodies of water and other low lying areas?
Sediment is typically deposited in bodies of water and low-lying areas when the energy of the transporting medium (such as water or wind) decreases, causing it to no longer be able to carry the sediment. This can happen during periods of low flow or calm conditions, allowing the sediment to settle out and accumulate.
What happen if a tall building more likely to be damage by an earthquake if it is on a a mountain of granite or a valley of sediment?
A tall building on a mountain of granite is less likely to be damaged by an earthquake compared to a valley of sediment. Granite is a more stable and solid foundation that can help dissipate the seismic waves, whereas sediment in the valley is more prone to liquefaction and amplification of seismic waves, making it more vulnerable to damage.
What causes a river to deposit sediment?
Most sediment washes or falls into a river as a result of mass movement and runoff. Other sediment erodes from the bottom or sides of the river. Wind can also drop sediment into the water. Hope I helped! -DorkyGeek77
What would happen if a groyne was removed?
Removing a groyne can disrupt the coastal sediment balance by altering the direction of longshore currents and potentially increasing erosion in certain areas while decreasing it in others. This can lead to changes in shoreline shape, sediment deposition, and overall coastal dynamics in the affected area.
What would happen if rivers did not continuously move grain-size sediment to the coastline?
it would get dried up and start to get icky and molded like a fish laying in dry land instead of the icy cold water.

Can an earthquake happen continuously?
No
Where the flood happen at Malaysia?
on it's coastline...........
What happen to rocks?
It becomes sediment.
When does gravity happen?
Rapidly, almost continuously.
What impact do the tides have on land forms?
Tides can erode the land and reshape the coastline. The process can take millions of years or in some cases the process can happen quickly. Tides can also help to build up land through depositing sand & sediment.
What happen to the sediment during deposition?
Becomes rock
What happen in deposition?
When sediment from erosion and weathering of rocks falls or lands somewhere.
What can happen when sediment and decaying organisms build up in a pond.?

Why does the erosion of the coastline happen?
Coastline erosion can occur due to natural forces like waves, currents, and storms breaking down the land surface over time. Human activities such as construction and dredging can also contribute to erosion by altering natural sediment transport processes. Additionally, rising sea levels and climate change can accelerate coastal erosion by increasing the intensity and frequency of storms.
