Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer to this question is true because desert pavements are formed as sand and other fine particles ( we can call these sediments) get to be removed gradually by wind as well as rainfall.

As the sediments are removed, what is then left behind are large fragments ( gravels and rocks). In conclusion, the desert pavement is as a result of water and wind.
