Question

Which type of sedimentary rock is most common on the earths surface? Anthropogenie, Evaporite, Carbonate, Silicitasic

Which particle size tends to remain suspended even in slow moving current? gravel, silt, sand, clay

why are clays sometimes hard to erode? particles have high hardness, particles stick together, particles are very small, they have large particles

what is the area that a river collects its water from callled? watershed, catchment, drainage area, all of the above

what is the surface that a river can not erode below called? valley bottom, ground level, longitudinal profile, base level

Explanation / Answer

Carbonate are the most common type of sedimentary rock present.

Clay particles tend to suspend even in slow moving current.

particles are very small. Because clay particles are very small thus they are hard to erode sometimes.

all of the above. the area that a river collects its water are drainage. catchment and watershed.

base level- The level below which a stream cannot erode.
