is it c or d?

Answer 1

Based on the provided responses, the best description that matches the image is:

D) Deposition carries the sediment down the Mississippi river and weathering sets it down into the Gulf of Mexico.

This is because the image shows a river meeting an ocean, suggesting that the sediment is being carried by the river (depicted as deposition) and then deposited into the Gulf of Mexico.
