Answer:

Frontal Lifting

Explanation:

  • This a process where the warm air being lighter is uplifted by the colder air from below and the resultant cold air acts as barrier for the warm air to develop at the ground surface and as being heavy on weight it stays under the warm air, this leads to the formation of convergent uplifting and the two distinct mass air move and the fronts may produce a cyclone when the air moves in a cyclic pathway.

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

b. stratigraphically alternating sequences of sandstones, conglomerates, and shales.

Explanation:

It is unlikely that one would find igneous rocks such as basalt and granite in fluvial environments. Coal is also not usually found in fluvial environments. Limestone prefers shallow and calm waters so would not be moved by water normally. This therefore invalidates options a, c, d, e and f.

For the hypothesis to be true, one would need to find conglomerates as these contain large clasts and are present in fluvial environments. Alternating sequences involving conglomerates and sandstones would indeed show that that some floods were able to carry large clasts.
