Answer:

d) By deposition of sediments in a shallow area

Step-by-step explanation:

Deposition is the deposition of wind, water or ice sediments. The sediment may be shipped in the form of steaks, sand & mud or water-dissolved salts.

Sediment accumulation can be seen everywhere in the water chain, from ponds, reservoirs, deltas and floodplains to high mountain rivers.
