Answer:

A river has 3 basic functions: erosion, transportation and deposition. It's the mixture of those 3 processes that result in the formation of assorted landforms by the action of a watercourse.

              The erosional work of streams/rivers carves and shapes the landscape through that they flow. Load carried by a watercourse can grind against its bed and sides. This method slowly wears the bed and sides away. once thrown against the perimeters and bed of rivers, the load gets broken into smaller items.

  • once the watercourse falls at a steep angle over terribly onerous rocks or down a deep vale facet it ends up in the formation of a water.
  • Whereas the watercourse enters the plain it twists and turns forming massive bends that are known as meanders.
  • In due course of your time the meander loop cuts far from the most watercourse and forms a cut-off lake, that is additionally referred to as Associate in Nursing ox-bow lake.
