<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

A) It constantly raises the bed of the rivers.

<em><u>Explanation:</u></em>

Loess is for the most part made by wind and glaciers. At the point when icy masses pound rocks to a fine powder, loess are formed. Streams convey the powder as far as possible of the ice sheet. This residue moves toward becoming loess.  

Loess frequently gathers in stream headwaters, and thusly gets conveyed to riverbeds. The development can be dense to the point, that it occupies the water over the nearby flood plain. This may result in the flooding of waterways.
