the longer sediment is transported by water, the more angular and poorly - sorted it becomes.
true
false
Brief Explanations
When sediment is transported by water, abrasion occurs. Abrasion causes the sediment to become more rounded (not angular) as the edges get worn down. Also, during transportation, sorting occurs. Longer - transported sediment is better - sorted (not poorly - sorted) as finer particles can be carried further and separate from coarser particles.
