Answer: Deposition is when the settlements settle down. A way to remember it is depoSITion. Sit is in the word and you can think of it as resting.

Answer:

Deposition is the geological process in which sediments, soil and rocks are added to a landform or landmass. Wind, ice, water, and gravity transport previously weathered surface material, which, at the loss of enough kinetic energy in the fluid, is deposited, building up layers of sediment.
