Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The point bar is formed along the inner edge of a meander where sediment is deposited due to slower water flow, creating a shallower slope. Cut bank, on the other hand, is the outer bank of a meander where faster water flow erodes sediment. Abandoned meander refers to an oxbow lake or a cutoff meander, formed when a meander is cut off from the main channel. Meander neck is not a term used to describe any feature of a meander.
