The three ways in which a stream carries its load are in solution, suspension, and bed load

Answer: Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

A river carries its load in three ways- in solution, suspension and bed load. The ground water while flowing into the rivers carries along solution that consists of minerals. The solution while crossing the rock breaks the rock into pieces.

These pieces along with mud and minerals form the suspension. Though the suspended materials are heavy due to the turbulence it swiftly moves along with the water. Then in bed load it carries pebbles, rocks which are very hard for the suspension to carry. They during the floods are driven into the sea.
