Which landform is most likely in a river with high sediment load and low gradient?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Braided channels and mid-channel bars
A river with abundant sediment and a low gradient has insufficient competence to transport all of its load, especially when discharge falls. Sediment accumulates as bars, and the flow divides around those bars into several shifting threads, producing a braided channel. Therefore A is correct. A sea arch is wave-made, a cirque is glacial, and a stalactite forms in a limestone cave.
