While entering the plains, Himalayan rivers generally make which of the following
patterns?
1. Braided channels
2. Flat valleys
3. Ox-bow lakes
Select the correct answer using the codes below:

Braided channels occur in rivers with high slope when, threshold level of sediment load or slope is reached, any slope over this threshold creates a braided stream. This is true for Himalayan Rivers and so 1 is correct. Flat valleys, like V-shaped valleys, are formed by streams, but they are no longer in their youthful stage, and are instead considered mature. With these streams, as the slope of a stream's channel becomes smooth, and begins to exit the steep V or U-shaped valley, the valley floor gets wider. Because the stream gradient is moderate or low, the river begins to erode the bank of its channel instead of valley walls. So, 2 is correct as it is found in Himalayan rivers. An oxbow is a crescent-shaped lake lying alongside a winding river. The oxbow lake is created over time as erosion and deposits of soil change the river's course. This is found in bank eroding Himalayan Rivers. So, 3 is correct.
