Answer:

meanders

oxbow lakes

waterfalls

Explanation:

River erosion is the carving of the earth’s surface by a river. There are four major ways that a river erodes;  attrition, solution, abrasion and hydraulic action. Waterfalls are mainly found upstream because the water moves at higher velocity (as a result of higher gradient in watershed regions) hence the water has a higher vertical erosion. Meanders and oxbow lakes are formed downstream where the gradient is low and water has a stronger horizontal erosion than vertical erosion.  

The rest of the choices are due to surface runoff erosion, especially on soil with no vegetation to break the running water.

Among fossil fuels: Coal is made by heating of woody plant material, and oil is made by heating of algae. Coal is made by heatin
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

Coal is made by heating of woody plant material, and oil is made by heating of algae.

Explanation:

The coal and the oil are both fossil fuels. They have both been very important for the development that the humans have experienced since the Industrial Revolution as they were what provided the energy needed for this process, and they still do.

The coal is a fossil fuel that has formed from woody material, mostly from the Carboniferous forests. Once these forests collapsed, they were quickly covered with water, mud, and sediments. Over time they were covered with even more sediments, so they were getting deeper into the crust. As they were getting deeper into the crust this material was exposed to higher temperatures and pressures, leading to the formation of the coal over the course of millions of years.

The oil is a fossil fuel that has formed from the remains of the marine life, mostly algae. As the algae and the other marine organisms have been dying out, they have fallen on the bottom of the oceans, quickly being covered with the soft sediments. As more and more sediments have been placed on top of them, they too were getting deeper into the crust, so they were also exposed to higher temperatures and pressures, eventually leading to the formation of the oil over the course of millions of years.
