Which of the following would be carried by suspension?

silt
sand
large rocks
small pebbles
clay

Answer 1

Suspension refers to the process by which fine particles are carried by a fluid (like water or air) without settling. The materials that would typically be carried by suspension include:

- silt
- clay

Sand, large rocks, and small pebbles are generally too heavy and larger to be suspended in a fluid, so they would not typically be carried by suspension.
