Q 2: Choose the correct word between brackets:
1) Quartzose diamictite is composed of
………………… ultrastable clasts (90%, 10%, 50%)
2) Very fine grains (dust) is moved by strong
eddies as (saltation, suspension, rolling)
3) Polycrystalline, elongated quartz grains
indicate ………………….. source rock
(volcanic,
metamorphic, hydrothermal)
4) In alkaline, oxidizing condition, iron is
present as ………………….. (ferrous, ferric, not existed), that give ……………………. (red,
green, blue) color to the rock/sediment.
5) …………………… consist of a rounded upstream
end, which flares downstream and merges into the bedding plane (Flute marks, scour marks, bounce
marks)
