What happens to the velocity of the stream as it enters the lake?
Which sediments are deposited first and why
The map above shows an overhead view of sediments that have accumulated at the bottom of a lake. Points A through D represent locations on the shoreline of the lake. A river most likely flows into the lake nearest to which location?

The symbols representing four sediment particles are shown in the key below. These particles are being transported by Sandy Creek into Lake Ontario. On the cross section below, draw the symbols on the bottom of Lake Ontario to show the relative position where each sediment particle is most likely deposited
Draw a line to represent the shape of the stream bottom from point X to point Y.
