WHAT IS OX BOW LAKE [CLASS 7-GEOGRAPHY] and how is it formed, there isn't enough explanation on my textbook​

Explanation:

when a meander becomes very pronounced,the outside bend or concave bend is so rapidly eroded that the river cuts through the narrow neck of the loop, forming an ox-bow lake or 'mortlake' (meaning dead lake). the river then flows straight. the ox-bow lake will later degenerate into a swamp through subsequent floods that may silt up the lake. it becomes marshy and eventually dries up.

the following sets of characteristics describe what we know about the outer plants is c. rocky surface, closet to the sun and larger in size
