What about the meander and floodplain question?

I first defined what they both meant. So a meander is a large curve or bend in a river whilst a floodplain is a low-lying flat area of land surrounded by a river on either side. Then i explained the formation of a meader and made sure i defined my key terms such as hydarulic action and abrasion, i then talked about formation of floodplain and how its formed from a migrating meander, then i metioned how when it floods it depsoits fertile minerals such as alluvium which is great for farming
