Verified Answer :

Sediment is actually depositeded the fastest by slowly moving water - so the option "by fast moving water" is false - the opposite is true!

Water is also slower inside of bends - so sediment is also deposited fastest there. The best answer is "on the inside bends"

Tabbey

In a river, sediment is deposited on the inside bends
.

When water flows inside a water body such as lake, its velocity is reduced and its ability to transport sediments also reduces. Sediments that are transported to the lake are deposited inside of bends where the slow flowing water cannot move them further. The smaller sediments settle away from the shore where the water is calmer, while the larger sediments settle near the shore.
