meandering streams question 18 options: a) have flowing water either episodically or during only a portion of the year. b) consist of a series of intertwined channels that are overloaded with sediment. c) are those that divert flow from streams they have intersected through stream erosion. d) have a channel that is highly sinuous (curvy).

Respuesta :

The correct answer is; d) have a channel that is highly sinuous (curvy)

As a result of the single channel of a meandering stream winding snake-like through its valley, the distance "as the stream flows" is greater than the distance "as the crow flies." The outside border of the water is moving more quickly than the inner as it flows around these curves. As a result, a cut bank forms on the outer border, and a deposition surface forms on the inner edge (a point bar). Where two meanders converge, their bends avoid the river's bend, forming an oxbow lake that may later be filled with overwash material.
