What landform caused by water erosion and deposition is shown in the image?
A) Floodplain
B) Meander
C) Delta
D) Alluvial
Note: this question has a picture, but I have no Idea to add it
And if we can't see it, we can't help.
Can you describe it?
Or do you know where the picture was taken or the location it depicts? That would help. In any case, your key words are "erosion" and "deposition". Make sure you know what those words mean, and what each of the choices means. Look the words up if you aren't sure.

Your answer is A. Flood Plain
To identify the landform in the image, we will need a visual representation. However, since you are unable to provide the image, I will do my best to explain the characteristics of each landform and how to identify them.
A) Floodplain: A floodplain is a flat or gently sloping land area adjacent to a river that is periodically flooded. Floodplains are created by the deposition of sediment carried by the river during times of flooding. They are usually characterized by fertile soil and support the growth of vegetation.
B) Meander: A meander is a bend or curve in a river's course. The water flow erodes the outer edge of the river bend, creating a cut bank, and deposits sediment on the inner edge, forming a point bar. Meanders often occur in areas with gentle slopes and can result in the formation of oxbow lakes.
C) Delta: A delta is a landform that forms at the mouth of a river where it enters a body of water, such as a lake or an ocean. Deltas are created by the deposition of sediment carried by the river. They typically exhibit a fan-like shape with distributaries, or branching channels, spreading out into the surrounding water.
D) Alluvial: Alluvial refers to the material, such as sand, silt, and gravel, that is deposited by flowing water, specifically in a river or stream. These deposits are collectively called alluvium and can accumulate over time to form landforms such as floodplains and deltas.
Without the image, it is difficult to provide a definitive answer. However, based on the descriptions provided, a possible answer could be:
C) Delta: If the image showcases a river entering a larger body of water and exhibits a fan-like pattern with distributaries, it is likely a delta.
Please keep in mind that this answer is based on assumptions and without the image, it is not possible to provide an accurate identification.
