Answer:C. A particle with jagged, rough ends.

Explanation: Deposition is the process through which particles are transferred and kept in a given area. Particle deposition can be affected by various factors such as the Driving force, the size of the particles, the roughness and jagged nature of the particles.

Rough and jagged particles will easily move hitting the side walls or other particles as it flows along the erosion, flooding or wind. Smooth or large particles will be difficult to deposit as compared to jagged and rough particles.
