<span>When river water is no longer flowing downhill, the water slows down. This makes sediment drop to the bottom. Sediment deposited where a river flows into an ocean or lake builds up and a landform called a delta is formed.</span>

A delta doesn't always form near an ocean, but yes, it often does. It forms from deposition of sediment. Sediment is the process of wearing or erosion of a natural object. The water slows down as it nears the ocean.

Some health science sites may restrict employees from wearing perfume or other scents.
Verdich [7]

The given statement is true.  

Some of the health science sites may restrict employees from wearing perfumes or other fragrances because the chemicals in the fragrances can stimulate reactions ranging from headaches to palpitations of heart in some of the individuals who are sensitive to them, making it tough for them to work efficiently.  

With time, the individuals getting exposed to the chemicals present in the fragrances become more sensitized to them to the point that they can no longer tolerate any more exposure. This can initiate breathing issues, nausea, sneezing, disorientation, and in extreme situations, they can even go into shock.
