Answers
Answer:
The formation of meanders is due toboth deposition and erosion and meanders gradually migrate downstream. The force of the water erodes and undercuts the river bank on the outside of the bend where water flow has most energy due to decreased friction. This will form a river cliff.
It's river friend, here is the explanation
Explanation:
River meanders - A meander is a bend in the river course. A snaking pattern develops as a river swings in a zig - zag manner across the plain, in the middle course of the river.
Meandering happens when there is erosion in the outer banks and it widens its valley. At the same time, there is deposition of silt on the opposite inner bank. When a meander gets cut off from the main river, an ' ox-bow lake' is formed.
Do you know the course of a river is divided into three parts or stages? First stage is termed as young or youthful stage, second stage is middle stage which is called as mature stage and lastly the old stage of the river which arrives when it meets the ocean.
