What is the process of settling out and grading sediments called?
Decompatiom
The process in which sediment is laid down is called?
Erosion is the moving of sediment from one place to another place. Deposition is the settling of particles suspended in air, ice, or water due to gravity or friction.
What is the dropping or settling of eroded materials?
The process by which material is dropped or settles is called deposition. The deposition of rock fragments leads to the formation of sedimentary rocks through the process of lithification.
What is the polishing and pitting of rocks by wind blown particles?
This process is called, abrasion.
What is the process called when water passes through soil layers drawing elements and particles with it?
Leaching is the removal of substances by percolating water.The movement of dissolved substances or particles into a horizon is called illuviation. The movement of dissolved substances or particles out of a horizon is called eluviation.
What are the differences between free settling and hindered settling?
when the particle do not collide with the wall of the container or with the other particles is called free settling the suspended particles in the medium do nor effect it and when the particle collide with the other particles and with the wall of the container an d collides with the suspended particles is called hindered settling
What is the process of settling out and grading sediments called?
Decompatiom

What is the process by which particles escape from the surface of a liquid and enter the gas state called?
This process is called evaporation.
What is sediment sediment?
Material that settles to the bottom of a liquid; lees. For the definition of sedimentary rock, use the link below to the related question.
A solution in witch particles can be separated by settling?
Salad dressing is a good example. I believe these types of mixtures are called suspensions because particles are suspended in the oil but then settle out after sitting for too long.
What is the process called when you expand the particles?
1. Probably heating.
Any process where the nucleus emits particles is called?
radiation
How do particles exit the cell?
Through a process called Exocytosis. :)
What process is used by some protists to ingest food particles?
The process used by some protists to actively ingest food particles is called Phagocytosis.
