Answer:

1. Incised meander.

2. Base level.

3. Terrace.

4. Lake

5. Meander.

6. Floodplain.

Explanation:

Erosion can be defined as a geological process which typically involves the wearing out of earthen (soil) materials and the transportation of these materials by natural forces like water, wind, etc. Soil erosion is greatest when the soil is steep.

The steepness of a body such as river or stream refers to the downward slope or gradient of the body of water.

Generally, the steepness of a body affects the rate at which other materials would flow or move around. Thus, the steeper a river or stream, the greater would be its rate of erosion.

Some of the characteristics of an erosion include the following;

1. An incised meander is a bend in a steep narrow bedrock valley. It avails a river large amount of vertical erosion power and as such enabling a downcut.

2. The lowest level to which a stream can erode is called a base level. Some examples are dam, waterfall, lake, stream, etc.

3. A terrace is the remnant of a former floodplain.

4. Examples of local base level include a stream or a lake.

5. A sweeping bend of a stream which is migrating laterally in a wide, flat valley is called a meander.

6. The flat, broad area surrounding a stream is referred to as a floodplain.

1) Define the term developed nation.
Komok [63]

Answer:

A nation that typically has higher average income, slow population growth, and many different types of economic activity

Explanation:

This is because a developed nation would be a nation that has been founded for more than 300 years (I think). They would have more population and economic activity due to the fact that it has been founded for a very long time. Meaning that growth and economic activity have been going on for centuries.
