Answer:
Sedimentation is the tendency for particles in suspension to settle out of the fluid in which they are entrained and come to rest against a barrier. This is due to their motion through the fluid in response to the forces acting on them: these forces can be due to gravity, centrifugal acceleration, or electromagnetism.

Answer:
Settling down of heavier insoluble particles/ solids from a mixture is called sedimentation. Like mud settles from muddy water. Decantation is pouring out of upper clear layer of liquid into another container to separate two immiscible liquids.
