    Answer (C): Bottom Load casts are sedimntary structures form as a result of gravitational instability. Load (the denser layer) sinking into its underlying (less dense) cast (mold). Fame structures, load waves, and anticrests are related to load casts.

    Answer C: Bottom Load cast are created when a denser layer of sediment is deposited on top of a less-dense sediment. This arrangement is gravitationally unstable, which encourages formation of a bulbous lobes if the sediment becomes liquefied (for instance, by an imposed earthquake shock). Once the sediments can flow, the instability creates the "hanging" lobes and knobs of the load casts as plumes of the denser sediment descend into the less-dense layer.
