b. a delta-like feature of sorted and layered sediments deposited by water running out the front of a melting glacier.

d. mounds of sand deposited on land by wind that has slowed down.

d. elongated deposits of wave and ocean current deposited sand, not attached to the shore, that are below, at, or above average sea level.

a. an unsorted and unlayered deposit of sediment deposited directly at the sides, bottom, or end of a glacier.

a. an elongated deposit of moraine mounded up by an advantage glacier.

d. an elongated deposit of sand by wave and ocean current, not attached to the land or shore.

e. mount of sand on land deposited by wind that has slowed down.

c. a generally level plain at the sides of streams that have been created by streams eroding their sides as they change course and then covered by sediments deposited when the streams move out of their channel when flooding occurs.

the 2-mm diameter grains settle farther downstream than the 4-mm diameter grains.(OR) the 2-mm diameter grains settle farther to the right.(OR) the large gains are not carried as far.

– the slope decreased.
(OR)
– the gradient between location (B) and (C) decreased.

a) the stream velocity decreased. (OR) the still water of the lake slows the stream currents.
b) Silt (OR) Clay.

the gold would be found on the inside of a meander where water velocity is slowest and where more dense sediments,such as gold, would likely be deposited. halite and gypsum have much lower densities than gold and would be less likely to be deposited. also halite and gypsum dissolve in water and are carried as dissolved sediments thus they are not likely to be desposited as solid sediments unless the stream was drying up

sediments deposited at the mouth of a stream are arranged form larger to smaller as they go out into a lake due to horizontal sorting—as a river slows down on entering a lake the larger. A reason why sediments would get bigger the deeper down one digs is because the shoreline between the lake and river has moved toward the lake center and the stream deposited the larger sediments further and further out into the lake the older(thus deeper down) the time of sediment deposition

I disagree with her inference that the sediments were deposited by glacier.The evidence for this includes:1.Glaciel valleys are U- shaped and this 2.Glacial sediments are unsorted and these sediments are all pebbles and are thus sorted like those deposited by streams; 3. The sediments were rounded and smooth like stream or beach deposited. Glacial sediment tends to be sub-rounded or subangular in shape; and 4. Glacial sediments often have scratches on them and these sediments have on markings on them such as stream or beach deposits have

Glaciars or ice

unsorted sediments are different form bedrock. parallel scratches in the bedroock

Rocks were abraded by tumbling. sediments rolled along the stream bed.

When liquid water freezes, it expands and breaks off pieces of rock OR frost action

gravity or mass movement

Sediments would only be sand size or smaller and may have a frosted surface.

– the valley has a U-shaped cross section.
(OR)
– the bottom of valley is round.

– parallel scratches and/or grooves in the bedrock.
-piles of unsorted sediments deposited across the valley floor.
