Detailed Solution

Meanders are formed in the middle courses of a river. After leaving the mountainous region, the rivers encounter a sudden break of slopes that slows them down in speed. The plains are gentle and broad, so the river has ample enough time to move to the sea, forming meanders in its way. A meander is a depositional feature of the river. It is an extreme U-bend in the stream. Meanders are created by transportation, deposition, and erosion activities. Meanders occur only on flat land where the river is large and established.
