A. a meander eroded through its bank and created an oxbow lake

Explanation:

A meander is one of the series of the patterns that include the bends and the curves and the loops and windings in the channels of the river and the stream and it swings for the side to the side and flows across the floodplains and is created by the eroded and is formed in the decorative patterns as well by the geomorphic features that result oxbow lakes which are a form of the cutoff lakes.
