Explain why a delta is formed at the mouth of a river?

WB Madhyamik 2018

Ans.

Delta: – The speed of the river slows down in the lower and delta parts of the river, as a result of which the material brought by the river starts accumulating at its mouth.  In this way, a triangle-shaped terrain is formed at the mouth.  Therefore, delta is formed due to excessive deposition of sediments at the mouth.
