<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.

Soil color only reflects the amount of organic matter present in soil. State True or False.
STALIN [3.7K]
This statement is true. Soil color only reflects the amount of organic matter that is currently present in the soil. If the soil seemed to be much darker, it means that the soil has a greater amount of organic materials which makes it better.
