Question

hydrogenous sediment form in the deep ocean? 1. How does a a. Weathering of continental rock produces fine particles that are carried to sea b. Phosphates and carbonates occur at volcanic mid-ocean ridges. Shipwrecks dissolve and contribute to the mineral content in the ocean. d Dissolved minerals in seawater precipitate out of solution when temperature and pressure conditions change. e. It falls onto Earth as space dust. by wind C.

Answer 1

Ans. D

Yes, it is true that hydrogenous sediment forms in the deep ocean by the seawater precipitation and it is due to the various exchanges between them.

Hydrogenous sediments are very small in amount and they form near about 1% of the total deep ocean sediments.

Basically, hydrogenous sediments are formed by the chemical reaction between the ocean water and the sediments of the deep ocean and they are very limited in amount and this is not the common chemical reaction which forms the hydrogenous sediments easily.
