Answer:
The lateral erosion on the outside bend causes undercutting of the bank to form a river cliff . Water on the inner bend is slower, causing the water to slow down and deposit the eroded material, creating a gentle slope. The build-up of deposited sediment is known as a slip-off slope (or sometimes river beach).....

Ʀiver cliff is the outside bank of a water channel (stream), which is continually undergoing erosioɴ. They are shaped much like a small cliff, and are formed by the erosion of soil as the stream collides with the river bank.
