Answer:
it is also called horse shoe shaped lake
Explanation:
An oxbow lake is formed when a river creates a meander, due to the river’s eroding the banks through hydraulic action and abrasion/corrosion. After a long period of time, the meander becomes very curved, and eventually the neck of the meander will touch the opposite side and the river will cut through the neck, cutting off the meander to form the oxbow lake.
