What are Solid particles that form layers at the bottom of ocean or lake?
These are sediment particles, such as sand, silt, and clay, that settle down due to gravity. Over time, these sediments accumulate to form layers called sedimentary deposits.
What are the aquatic organisms that grow in the sediments at the bottom of a pond or lake called?
Aquatic organisms that grow in the sediments at the bottom of a pond or lake are called benthic organisms. This group includes various species such as algae, bacteria, worms, and small invertebrates that play crucial roles in nutrient cycling and the overall health of the aquatic ecosystem. They often serve as a food source for higher trophic levels, contributing to the pond or lake's food web.
What you called the land that is formed by sediments where river empties into a lake?
It is called a River Delta.
What is at the bottom of lake?
The bottom is called bathymetry.
What is left behind when lake water evaporates?
All of the suspended solids will settle on the lake bed if it was a salt lake you would have a layer of salt
Why do storms cause a new graded bed pattern to form on the bottom of a lake or river?
The storms create temporary streams. The streams carry sediments with them. Soon these sediments are settle down creating a graded bedding.

What has the author John Frederick Peter Kick written?

Do eagles eat catfish?
Most of the fish preferred are ones such as catfish and carp from river and lake bottoms which are usually picking up the sediments from the bottom.
What material that was formerly on the bottom of lake Bonneville is most likely exposed on the surface today?
The material most likely exposed on the surface today that was formerly at the bottom of Lake Bonneville includes fine sediments such as clay and silt, along with layers of gravel and sand. As the lake receded, these sediments were left behind, forming the Great Salt Lake Desert and surrounding areas. Additionally, remnants of ancient shorelines and various geological formations may also be visible today, reflecting the lake's extensive history.
What process do all three kinds of rocks undergo to form sediments?
They form by sediments of rocks getting squeezed together at the bottom of a lake. Some of those rocks are Conglomerate, Limestone, and Sandstone.
How a fossil forms in sediment?
When a river flows into a lake or ocean, the sediments that the river carries settle to the bottom. Layers of sediment may covor the dead organism.
