Answer:

false

Step-by-step explanation:

As rivers come out of ranges of mountains or hills, they flow more slowly across a lowland. They no longer have enough speed to carry their whole load of sand and gravel. A large part of the load of rivers leaving a mountain range is deposited in a series of alluvial fans at the foot of the mountains.
