<h2>Answer:</h2>

Sediments eroded from mountainsides and shifted through streams are example of conservation of <u>matter</u>.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Sediments are the soil resources that are out of their place. Due to the process of transport, detachment, deposition of soil particles by the forces of wind, rain, wind-shear, floods over the soil surface, sedimentation takes place.

This alters density, volume, and area but helps to conserve matter. These sediments travel until the water and wind energy are insufficient to continue the movement. So, the matter will be utilized along with the minerals it carries which makes the soil fertile.

Answer and Explanation:

Sediment transport occurs in natural systems where the particles are clastic rocks (sand, gravel, boulders, etc.), mud, or clay; the fluid is air, water, or ice; and the force of gravity acts to move the particles along the sloping surface on which they are resting.

The Appalachian Mountains may have once been as lofty as the Himalayan-Tibetan Mountain belt is today. Why are they not this hig
marta [7]

The correct answer is - They formed long ago, and erosion has beveled them to their present elevation.

The Appalachian Mountain Range is one of the oldest mountain ranges on the planet. They have formed in the Ordovician Period, around 480 million years ago. When they formed and were at their peak, the Appalachians were much larger and higher than what they are in the present. The reason for their decline in size is attributed to the erosion. The erosion is a process that removes the material from its original position. This process has been influencing, at different rates, the Appalachians for almost half a billion years. Even though the erosion is not a process that acts very quickly, when put the time that it influenced these mountains we will see that it managed to lower them significantly. That process continues in the present, and in the manner in which the continents are moving, there shouldn't be any force that will help lift up the Appalachians again, but instead they will continue to shrink until they are flattened in the distant future.
