I believe that the answer is number 1. Sediment is deposited as a river enters a lake because the velocity (speed) of the river decreases - the same reason that sediment gets deposited on a river's meander.

Hope this helps! :)

The correct answer is - (1) velocity of the river decreases.

When the velocity (the speed) of the river decreases, be it at the entry of a lake, sea, ocean, or meandering, passing through a valley with very little change in altitude, the sediment starts to get deposited. This is due to the decrease in force caused by the decrease in velocity, there is not enough force to push the sediments further so they start to deposit because the river is not able to drag them further on.

Explain the cause of daily tides. What human activities do the tides affect and how?
Fynjy0 [20]

Tides are caused by the specific alignment of the Moon, Earth, and Sun.

When aligned a certain way the the gravitational pulls basically share and add on to each other creating tidal waves.

An example of a certain alignment would be spring tides, which happen during a New or Full moon.

Examples: Boat sailors must watch out for tides and make sure to plan their sailing journeys according to the tide. They don't want to be caught against a tide, especially small board sailors.

Also fisherman keep note of tides since some sea life rely on tides for survival and feeding or some fish simply follow the movement of the tides. Fisherman use tides as an indication of when it'd be best to go fishing.
