Flood plains are made by a meander eroding sideways as it travels downstream. When a river breaks its banks and floods, it leaves behind layers of alluvium (silt). These gradually build up to create the floor of the flood plain.....✌️❤️✔️

Answer:
During floods, layers of fine soil and other material called sediments are deposited on the river bank. This leads to the formation of flat fertile flood plains.
