Which consequence results when glacial till undergoes subsequent fluvial sorting?

A)Creation of stratified drift deposits
B)Increased rate of loess deposition
C)Formation of patterned ground polygons
D)Development of extensive regolith layers

💡 Explanation

Glacial till is unsorted sediment; fluvial sorting concentrates sediments into layers, because differences in grain size and density cause differential transport by water. The result is stratified drift deposits, rather than increased loess deposition resulting from wind action.
