Solution

The correct option is A sedimentation and decantation
The process of settling down of heavier insoluble particles from the mixture is called sedimentation.
The process of transferring the clear liquid without disturbing the sediments is called Decantation.
We have to apply firstly sedimentation and then decantation for separating the given mixture.

Hence, option A is correct.
