Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When a river flows into a standing body of water, it forms a delta. A delta is a landform created by sediment that is deposited where a river flows into a standing body of water, such as a lake or sea. Over time, the sediment builds up and forms a triangular or fan-shaped landform.
