Answer:
As a river flows down steep slopes, the water performs vertical erosion. This form of erosion cuts down towards the river bed and carves out steep-sided V-shaped valleys. As the river flows towards the mouth, the slopes become less steep. Eventually the river will flow over flat land as it approaches the sea.

As a river approaches the sea, it widens and becomes relatively slower. Thus,it starts depositing silt and other sediments on the river banks. This silt deposit leads to the formation of triangular land bodies called deltas. These are formed at the point where the river and sea meet.
