Gravity can cause water to move down and carry sediment and rocks along the bottom. if the water slows down, it drops the rocks and if it floods a field then the grass will also filter smaller particles out leaving fine sediment behind.

Answer:

Water erodes landscapes and forms landscapes and gravity helps sediments to move down a slope and also gravity effects the way water moves. I hope these helps. If not please let me know.
