Sir please explain, from "suspended rock fragments...............by this process"?

Transportation Due to Sea : Suspended rock fragments are carried away by the sea waves towards the sea. They are lifted and carried offshore. Thus, long shore waves array the sediments almost parallel to the coast. In due Course of time, they build up barS across the coastal regions enclosing a lagoon. A lake Pulicut is thus formed by this proces

    Suspended rocks fragments, eroded by wave actions of sea are carried by backwash current and transported to deeper sea (offshore). Longshore currents (current parallel to shore line), transports the sediment parallel to the shoreline and in turn form barriers parallel to the shoreline. Due to formation of barrier bar, part of sea at coastal region gets enclosed to the terrestrial effect and isolated from wave actions of sea, lead to the formation of lagoons (coastal lakes).

    Like river is running to sea . In ocean there are two type fluid movement that is waves and tides. Waves(when air moves by touching sea water surface it is formed). Lagoons are lakes near the ocean surrounded by sandbar and land so these are the area of high salinty We know ocean basin at its depth is the low velocity zone means finer particles of rock fragments are suspended/floated in the water and is carried out by wave action to the sea shore ,,so creating sand bar like features. Solution you know dissolved in water. sand bar image is below and other features also

    ocean has divided with depth and distance from land in several types. offshore comes after offshore transition in the deep ocean. But wave action is prominent there
