Deposition

Question 1

Factors seen in deposition

Answer 1

Size (energy environment), Presence of minerals - quartz and muscovite vs clay, Flocculation, Precipitation, Maturity

Question 2

Size

Answer 2

The distance travelled by the material - further = smaller

Question 3

Presence of minerals

Answer 3

Harder minerals survive longer transportations

Question 4

Flocculation

Answer 4

is the process by which solute comes out of a solution. As sediment is dropped, the charged particles, such as clay and polymers, clump together to form flocs

Question 5

Precipitation

Answer 5

of minerals out of a solution during evaporation
