Answer:

The options are

A. Delta

B. Watershed

C. River

D. Lake

The CORRECT ANSWER IS A

A. Delta

Step-by-step explanation:

Delta fan is a low lying vegetation that consists majorly of stream –the river accumulates borne sediments at its mouth. It occurs when a river flows to a body of standing water, taking with it soil and minerals as it flows into the body of standing water to form a fan shape or triangle as seen in the attached image.
