Answer: B) loess

Step-by-step explanation:

Loess is the correct option because of the fact that it is formed by the sediments which includes wind blowing silt of typically 20-50 micrometer size, and clay. The silt and clay are cemented with each other by calcium carbonate. The two chief ingredients are in equal proportions.
