Solution

Dear Student,

Erosion, transportation, and deposition all occur in a river. Moving from the upper course to the lower course, the rates of erosion, transportation and deposition change.
The deposition is the processes where the material being transported by a river is deposited. Deposition occurs when a river loses energy. This can be when a river enters a shallow area or towards its mouth where it meets another body of water.
