Causes of plate motion

Mantle convection currents, ridge push and slab pull are three of the forces that have been proposed as the main drivers of plate movement (based on What drives the plates? Pete Loader). There are a number of competing theories that attempt to explain what drives the movement of tectonic plates.

Which particle has a high rate of deposition?
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

A particle with jagged, rough ends has a high rate of deposition.

Explanation:

When erosion takes place, the particles of rocks move from one place to another and then they get settled on the new place. Those particles which have round shaped ends cannot settle quickly because they can be easily pushed by air and again moved but particles having rough ends get stuck in the soil or surface of earth and they are settled quickly.
