  • A.Solution
  • B.Suspension
  • C.Saltation
  • D.Traction

Answer: A

When eroded material is dissolved and carried along as individual ions in the water, the transport process is called solution. Limestone regions lose most of their material this way, as calcium and bicarbonate ions.

Suspension carries fine particles held up in the flow, saltation bounces sand grains along, and traction rolls or drags the coarsest material over the bed.
