Deltas forming at the mouths of rivers
A
Weathering
B
Erosion
C
Deposition
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -the flat, low-lying plain that sometimes forms at the mouth of a river from deposits of sediments. landform created as a river deposits sediment into the body of water as it empties. process of a delta distributary abandoning one channel and carving out another.

Detailed explanation-2: -In actuality, not all deltas display the classic “delta” form. This characteristic shape develops typically at river mouths, where waves and tides do not influence the amount of sediment supplied by the river. Such systems, exemplified by the Mississippi River delta, are called river-dominated deltas.

Detailed explanation-3: -Deltas-Feature of Deposition Deltas are features of river deposition found in the old age stage (lower course of a river). They are deposits of alluvium found at the mouth of the river where it enters the sea/lake or another river. As a river flows into the sea it deposits the rest of its load according to size.

Detailed explanation-4: -Deltas are depositional landforms that are created from the loading of sediment onto the land as the rivers capacity to carry that sediment is reduced. They are dynamic areas that change rapidly due to continual recreation of land or the erosion of unstable island and land during storm and flood events.
