Question

Desert pavement is created as a result of A) abrasion. B)deflation. C)blowouts. D)water erosion

Answer 1

Desert pavement is created as a result of deflation. Desert pavement is formed by the process of deflation. Normally, small and fine fragments are carried by wind since they are light in weight as the larger compact particles are left behind. What remains is rocky, compact, and not easily eroded, and it is what is commonly referred to as the desert pavement.
