Answer:

Lakes Formed by Erosion

The solvent action of rain-water on limestone carves out solution hollows. When these become clogged with debris lakes may form in them. The collapse of limestone roofs of underground caverns may result in the exposure of long, narrow- lakes that were once underground.29-Dec-2015

Explanation:

A lake is an area filled with water, localized in a basin, surrounded by land, apart from any river or other outlet that serves to feed or drain the lake.[1] Lakes lie on land and are not part of the ocean, although like the much larger oceans, they form part of Earth's water cycle. Lakes are distinct from lagoons which are generally coastal parts of the ocean. They are generally larger and deeper than ponds, which also lie on land, though there are no official or scientific definitions.[2] Lakes can be contrasted with rivers or streams, which are usually flowing in a channel on land. Most lakes are fed and drained by rivers and streams
