Question
**Classifying Sediments by Their Source** Sediments can be classified by their source. Match the source with the appropriate term. 1. **Derived from pre-existing rocks on land.** - Selection: **Lithogenous (or terrigenous)** 2. **Derived from living organisms.** - Selection: **Cosmogenous** 3. **Precipitated directly from seawater in chemical reactions.** - Selection: **Hydrogenous** 4. **Derived from space.** - Selection: **Biogenous** The interactive element above allows users to match sedimentary sources with their correct scientific terms. Each description explains the origin of the sediments, and corresponding terms can be selected from drop-down menus. (Note: The correct matches based on definitions should be: - Derived from pre-existing rocks on land: **Lithogenous (or terrigenous)** - Derived from living organisms: **Biogenous** - Precipitated directly from seawater in chemical reactions: **Hydrogenous** - Derived from space: **Cosmogenous**) However, this interactive segment demonstrates the learning process through selection.
