Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

A meander, in general, is a bend in a sinuous water course or river. A meander forms when moving water in a river erodes the outer banks and widens its valley. Mean dering rivers erode gediment from the outer curve of each meander bend and deposit it on an inner curve further downstream. When a meander gets cut off from the main stream, an oxbow lake forms.
