Radiolarian Ooze are

  • A.Terrigenous Deposits
  • B.Neritic Deposits
  • C.Pelagic Deposits
  • D.Littoral Deposits

Answer: C

Radiolarian ooze is a pelagic deposit. It is a siliceous ooze formed from the skeletons of radiolaria, which are tiny marine animals, and it settles on the deep ocean floor, far from land.

Terrigenous deposits are derived from the land and are found near the continents. Neritic deposits lie on the continental shelf, and littoral deposits lie between the high and low tide levels, so none of these includes the oozes of the open deep sea.
