Which is/are above Correct?

Answer 1

The correct option is D Neither 1 nor 2

<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> It is a characteristic feature of a river in its senile stage (old).The presence of a delta represents the continuing ability of rivers to deposit stream-borne sediments more rapidly than they can be removed by waves and ocean currents so the option 2 is incorrect.
