Ageologist noted that the sediment in an area differs in composition from the bedrock beneath it. which statement best explains the geologist's observation? a. wind, water, and plants can break down bedrock. b. sediments form from the local bedrock. c. wind and water can transport sediments to a new location. d. species in an area change as bedrock becomes soil.

C.Wind and water can transport sediments to a new location.

According to the given situation, this can be concluded that the composition of the sediments is different from the bedrock  beneath it because the sediments are deposited by the physical agents such as water, wind and others undergoing processes like weathering and erosion of the parent material and transporting the materials or sediments to the new locations.

americans began to notice growing differences between the northern and southern sections of the country. there were more people living in cities in the north, which made it more urban. more people lived on farms in the south, which made it more rural. while many people were farmers in the northern states, there were now other ways to make a living, such as working in mechanical cotton gins factories manufacturing cloth, tools and other goods. people in the north supported high tariffs on goods imported from europe because the extra cost encouraged people to “buy american” instead. in the southern states, planters did not like tariffs because they sold most of their production to europe and bought their tools from there as well. southerners believed the protective tariff was something that only northern factory owners keep their profits high. so the southern politicians came up with an idea. they would opt out. they would simply ignore the protective tariff. it was ‘null and void’ in south carolina. the state would not collect the taxes on goods imported into south carolina, no matter what the president said they had to do. this decision led to the nullification crisis.
