Advertisements
उत्तर
-
Delta: Formed when a river divides into many distributaries at its mouth due to deposition of sediments over a large area. The delta typically forms a triangular shape.
-
Floodplains: These are formed by the deposition of sediments along the riverbanks during periods of flooding. Floodplains are generally flat and fertile, supporting agriculture.
These landforms are created by the river’s slow, sluggish flow and the reduced ability to transport its load.
