A chute cutoff is related to which process?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Formation of a short straight channel across the inside of a meander instead of neck cutting
A chute cutoff develops when floodwater breaches the narrow, low part of a meander and excavates a new, shorter channel across the point bar or inner bend. It differs from a neck cutoff, which slices through the narrow strip of land between two approaching meander limbs. The other options are glacial, marine, and karst landforms, so A is correct.
