Sedimentis a loose unconsolidated deposit of particles. Sediment is transported by various means such as wind, water, ice, and gravity, to rest in places like river deltas and ocean floors. Sediments can come from many origins: land, biology, volcanoes, outer space, or even the water itself. Deep ocean sediments tend to be finer-grained.
