<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.

What are the different types of leaves that plants have?
dusya [7]

Answer:

There are two different types of leaves – simples leaves and compound leaves. The other types of leaves include acicular, linear, lanceolate, orbicular, elliptical, oblique, centric cordate, etc. They perform the function of photosynthesis and help in the removal of excess water from the aerial parts of the plant. The most obvious aspect to examine is the shape of the leaf. If it is an uninterrupted shape, it is simple. If the shape divides into smaller leaf sets the leaf is compound. Identifying plant leaves that are compound divides them into subsets.

The Honeydough Bread factory produces 2,000 loaves of bread per day.
padilas [110]

Answer:

Bakers use yeast as a leavening agent in baking bread and other bakery products.

The yeast ferments the sugar present in the dough and converts it into ethanol and carbon dioxide.

Glucose or sugar + bakers yeast → ethanol + carbon dioxide

Carbon dioxide causes the dough to rise whereas alcohol or ethanol formed usually evaporates during the baking process.

Thus, the given blanks can be correctly filled up by alcohol fermentation and carbon dioxide.
