What type of sediment particles are similar in size?

a. sorted

b. unsorted

c. clastic

d. dissolved

sorted,

Explanation:

If a deposit contains sediments of similar size, density, and/or shape, than it is a sorted element.

A. Sorted sediment particles are similar in size

Explanation:

Sorting means the degree of resemblance of the rock. It depends upon how much transport the sediment has undergone. Well sorted grains have rocks of similar size. Spiky sediments are found closest to the source area because they are heavy and big, while fine sediments like clay and silt travel the farthest. The "degree of sorting" indicates the energy and time taken for the "deposition" as well as the "transport process".
