Answer 2

HERE IS YOUR ANSWER :-

When river enters in 2nd and middle phase after the Vertical deepening, it start valley widening by the lateral erosion.

in simple term, it erode the sides of the river and less erosion of valley base. lateral erosion refers to the widening of a stream channel or valley.
