Difference between delta and distributary

Answer 1

Answer:

HERE IS YOUR ANSWER...HOPE IT HELPS YOU..

Explanation:

• DISTRIBUTARIES ARE:-

A distributary, or a distributary channel, is a stream that branches off and flows away from a main stream channel. Distributaries are a common feature of river deltas. The phenomenon is known as river bifurcation. The opposite of a distributary is a tributary. Distributaries are found where a stream nears a lake or an ocean. They can also occur inland, on alluvial fans, or where a tributary stream bifurcates as it nears its confluence with a larger stream. In some cases, a minor distributary can divert so much water from the main channel that it can become the main route.

• AND DELTA'S ARE:-

River waters are always flowing toward a larger body of water, like an ocean or a sea. Sometimes an area is created called a delta. A delta is a wetland area that forms as river waters empty into a larger body of water. Often, deltas look triangular in shape and sometimes they're even described as looking like a fan.
