Answer : The process in which sediment is dropped and comes to rest is called, Deposition.

Explanation:

Deposition : It is a type of process in which the molecules are settle down at the bottom of the container. In this process, there is no intermolecular space present between the atoms of molecule.

This process results in the formation of the sedimentary rocks which are made out of ice, wind and water flows which carry particles in the suspension.

Hence, the process in which sediment is dropped and comes to rest is called, Deposition.

your parents i think this could be it

a  solution  is always transparent, light passes through with no scattering from solute particles which are molecule in size. the  solution  is homogeneous and does not settle out. a colloid is intermediate between asolution  and a  suspension. while asuspension  will separate out a colloid will not.
