FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

oxbow lake

Explanation:

The meander usually originates in the rivers located in the alluvial plains that have almost no slopes due to the sediments of the earth that commonly settle in the convex areas of the meander. However, in the concave areas, thanks to the operation of forces of centrifugal characteristics, greater erosion is generated and the banks are diminished.

If the natural action of the erosion of water and sediments causes two curvilinear channels to be found between them, the river will react through the area where the currents exert opposition and in this way it will originate a horseshoe lake or oxtail (in English usually called <u>oxbow lake</u>) because the sediments will block the entry of water and the exit of the previous meander, which will cause it to be outside the river path.

The 1950's hypothesis referred from the “Clovis first theory” which explains the earliest existence of humans in the Americas from Clovis culture. Paleolithic hunter-gatherers escaped from the North Asian region and entered North America; nearly 10,000 years ago the people of the Americas were named Paleo-Indians.
