Question

Choose the odd one from the list given below:

• A. Water cycle
• B. Clouds
• C. Rain
• D. Sedimentation

Answer 1

The correct option is D

Sedimentation

Explanation for the odd one:

Sedimentation

• Sedimentation is a separation technique, used to separate the solid-liquid mixture.
• In sedimentation, large size particles of solids settled down, and clear liquid forms on top.

Clouds, rain, and water cycle are natural processes and not involved in the separation techniques.

• Clouds are condensed forms of water vapors.
• When water vapours condensed in the form of clouds, they become heavy and precipitate as rain.
• The continuous circulation of water in nature is called the water cycle.

Therefore, sedimentation (Option D) is the odd one among water cycle, rain, and clouds.
