Answer:
Natural levees are embankments formed naturally after a river floods and recedes. Friction with the floodplain during a flood causes a decrease in the velocity of the river leading to the deposit of the material that the flood water is carrying. The deposits in natural levees contain mud, sand, and stones and are formed such that they slope away from either side of the river or flood plain.
