Nutrients primarily come from detritus sinking from more productive shallower water.

<h3>Define detritus.</h3>

In contrast to dissolved organic material, detritus is dead organic material that is in the form of particles. Detritus typically consists of faces and the carcasses or remains of dead organisms. Communities of microbes that colonize and breakdown (i.e., remineralizer) detritus are frequently found in it. It is known as "soil organic matter" and is present in terrestrial ecosystems as leaf litter and other organic matter that is combined with soil. Organic matter that is suspended in water and accumulates in depositions on a body of water's floor referred to as "marine snow" when the floor is a seabed is referred to as detritus in aquatic ecosystems.

How does a meander form in a river?
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

A meander forms in a river by eroding laterally, to the right side then the left side and the left side again, this forms large bends, which then horseshoe like loops called meanders. The force of the water then erodes and undercuts the river bank on the outside of the bend which is where the water flows and it has the most energy due to the decreasing friction.

hope this helps :)
