There are a number of processes that could fit this description including mud / debris flows and solifluction (both types of "mass wasting"). In pelagic / benthic (marine) settings turbidity currents would also fit this description.
Please see the related links.
The driving force of a turbidity current is obtained from the sediment, which renders the turbid water heavier than the clear water above.Turbiditycurrents are an example of density or Gravity_current
In the Mediterranean Sea the cool dense water sinks under less dense water which is called density current.
During centrifugation, organelles will sediment out based on their size, shape, and density. Typically, larger and denser organelles like nuclei will sediment out first at lower speeds, followed by mitochondria, lysosomes, and endoplasmic reticulum. Smaller and less dense organelles like ribosomes will be found in the pellet at higher speeds.
well to be 100% honest, a surface current is basically a current on the surface. This particular current moves in a stream-like fashion on the surface of the ocean. A surface current can be short, wide, deep, or narrow.
i dont know im doing science homewok and i need this answer this
Turbidity currents
Turbidity currents
The smallest, least dense particles.
A density current forms when more dense seawater moves toward less dense seawater.
Turbidity currents are caused by sand and mud on the continental shelf and slope that is dislodged and thrown into suspension. Turbidity currents themselves are downslope movements of dense, sediment-laden water. Source: I'm in a college level geology course.
Dense regular and dense irregular connective tissues
the answer to this question is a density current forms when more dense seawater sinks beneath less dense seawater

Density current
You would fine sediment in the benthic zone, or bottom, of a lake.
