Solution

The correct options are
A Sand
B Clay
C Rocks
Rivers coming down from mountains bring sediments like silt, sand, clay, and gravel along with them. These are called alluvial deposits. The rivers flood almost every year and deposit all the sediments in the plain region, making the plains fertile.
