Correct answer choice is:



D. Hydrogenous


Sediments provide clues to unraveling the mysteries of Earth in the past. Hydrogenous sediments are created directly from the water of the sea or ocean. These are the precipitates of insoluble material, consisting of mainly rock and soil, which are taken from the land areas to the ocean by the means of wind and rivers
