Alejandra Stevens · Answer 1

The correct option is A) swamp sediments

Explanation:

Swamp sediment can be described as a wetland which is located near to a forest. The sediment soil will have adequate amounts of minerals and nutrients in it to support the growth of plants. There will be more chemical compounds present in such type of soil. Hence, option A is correct.

Other options, like option D, is not correct because a desert will have soil which will have very little chemical compounds in it. The soil present in deserts will not be rich in chemical compounds. Usually, the soil in a desert is just sand.
