Question

How is sand that flows in a river formed?​

Answer 1

The constant change in temperature along with the winds and the rains and fiercely flowing water, develops cracks on the rock surface, causing them to break into smaller particles (weathering of rocks). These soil particles are transported by the flowing river to the low lying areas and deposited there as sand.

Here's Your Answer

Explanation:
