Mitosis is when a DNA error, aka mutation, occurs in a body cell. When cells divide, it needs a copy of the DNA. During DNA replication, that error can cause the instructions for building proteins to differ. The change can not affect offspring. Meiosis is the same situation, but in sex cells. This can be transferred to offspring.

A meander that has been cut off from the river becomes a
babunello [35]
Salutations!

A meander that has been cut off from the river is called oxbow lake. I will now give an explanation on how an oxbow lake is formed.

An oxbow lake is a narrow U-shaped lake near a river. Its a meander that got cut off.

As erosion, continues, the neck of the meander is worn away. It gets narrower and narrower. Then, during flooding, the river takes a shortcut - straight across the neck. Soon the loop of the meander gets sealed off. It turns into an oxbow lake. In time, the lake will get covered with weeds, and fill with soil, and disappear. 

Hope I helped (:

Have a great day!
