Answer:

Oxbow-shaped meanders have two sets of curves: one curving away from the straight path of the river and one curving back. An oxbow lake starts out as a curve, or meander, in a river. A lake forms as the river finds a different, shorter, course. The meander becomes an oxbow lake along the side of the river.
