Which sedimentary structure provides information about the direction of water flow in the original environment of deposition? a. Varves b. Graded beds c. Cross-beds d. Trace fossils

Cross beds sedimentary structure provide information about the direction of water flow in the original environment of deposition

Explanation:

Cross - bedding -

The deposition of the sediments by flowing water or by wind, creates a bedding that have angled layers, this process is called cross - bedding.

Cross - beds on due to water scales from centimeters to tens to centimeters, while that via wind is from meters to several meters.

Cross - bedding provides important information about the direction of the flow of water current, even, advance analysis can determine the rate of flow and the amount of sediments available.
