Answer:

Delta

Step-by-step explanation:

In geological terms, a delta is characterized as the landform at the mouth of a river where it empties the sediments into a body of water. It is formed by the accumulation of sediment brought by a river so the flow departs its mouth and sets foot in static bodies like lakes, oceans, or seas. The erosion helps in the deposition of these sediments as rivers flow away these sediments with them and discharge it later.
