The sedimentation rate or the ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate)is measured simply by recording how far the top of the Red Blood Cell layer has fallen (in millimetres) from the top of the serum layer in one hour Water treatment plants use the method of sedimentation to filter out unwanted particles from unclean water

Sedimentation is a process by which heavier impurities present in liquid normally water settle down at the bottom of the container containing the mixture The process takes some amount of time
- Separation of Substances - BYJUS
Sedimentation is the process by which the heavier components of a mixture settle down For example, when a sand-water mixture is allowed to stand undisturbed for some time and sand settles at the bottom

Filtration, Sedimentation and Decantation Filtration Filtration is the process of passing the mixture through a filter to remove the solid particles from the fluid components of the mixture For instance, if we pass muddy water through a fine filter, we can notice that the mud gets filtered and the water passes through Sedimentation When the heavier component in the mixture settles when water
- Ribosomes - BYJUS
Ribosomes Ribosomes are non-membrane-bound cell structures that serve as protein synthesis sites They have nearly equal amounts of protein and a type of ribonucleic acid known as rRNA (ribosomal RNA) Some ribosomes associate with the endoplasmic reticulum, while others float freely in the cytoplasm Whether free or attached, ribosomes typically cluster in groups connected by a strand of
- Explain the process of sedimentation and decantations? - BYJUS
Sedimentation: Sedimentation is a separation method that is used to separate solid-liquid mixtures in which particle sizes vary from each other In sedimentation the mixture is allowed to stand due to which solid particles settled down which is called sediments The clear liquid formed on top above the sediments, is called supernatant For example, the mixture of sand and water Decantations
- How Are Sedimentary Rocks formed? - BYJUS
How Are Sedimentary Rocks formed? Sedimentary rocks are formed by the deposition and subsequent cementation of the material at the Earth’s surface within the bodies of water These rocks are formed in four ways: Deposition of weathered remains of other rocks Accumulation and the consolidation of sediments Deposition of the results of biogenic activity Precipitation from solution
- What is Suspension? - BYJUS
A suspension is defined as a homogenous mixture of particles with a diameter greater than 1000 nm such that the particles are visible to naked eyes In this type of mixture, all the components are completely mixed and all the particles can be seen under a microscope A suspension is a heterogeneous mixture containing solid particles that are sufficiently large for sedimentation
