Alluvial - Transported by the river.
Marine - deposited by Sea.
Lacustrine - deposited by the lake.

There is some kind of difference between transportation and deposition, so the correct answer should be an option (a)

If transported by river or water it is Alluvial and if transported by wind then its loess.
