Answer:

suspended load; bed load

Step-by-step explanation:

Suspended load is those particles in a river that are transported and float between and around the middle and top of the river, they often change the color of the river through their suspension such as clay.

Bed load is those particles in a river that are transported at the river bed or floor. This is as a result of their weight. Examples are relatively big stones.

Hence, in this case, Clay sized particles in a river are likely to be transported as SUSPENDED LOAD whereas gravel-sized particles are likely to be transported as BED LOAD
