 Best Answer

Sediments can be deposited by wind or water but water moves most. 
Loess is wind deposited particles. Alluvium is water deposited soil. 
The particles are one part but the place they settle impacts how they become rock because the geologic process will be different at the bottom of a deep marine sea than it is in a shallow off shore shelf. 

Only the very smallest particles will be moved to mid-ocean but there will be many plankton and other organic deposits. 

Coastal particles will vary in sizes . Water temperature will have more impact on the organic contributions here. Shallow tropical waters have coral and can form limestone.

In C3 plants the conservation of water promotes_______.a. photorespiration. b. a shift to C4.c. photosynthesis.d. the opening of
ankoles [38]

Answer:

A) photorespiration.

Explanation:

Photorespiration is the harmful metabolic process which takes place when the concentration of oxygen in the leaf increases compared to carbon dioxide.

The RUBISCO enzyme which usually binds the carbon dioxide now binds the oxygen and form the phosphoglycolate and 3 phosphoglycerate. The phosphoglycolate is lost through the Calvin cycle as Carbon dioxide molecule. This loss proves harmful to the plants.

The photorespiration occurs when the plant faces high temperature therefore n order to prevent water loss the stomata gets closed. This result in the binding of the oxygen to the RUBISCO and thus photorespiration begins.

Thus, Option-A is correct.
