A mature river is on a shallower slope and it doesn't have rapids or waterfalls.

(Waterfalls: steep fall of water, as of a stream, from a height.

Rapids: part of a river where the current is swift.)

What are the three ages of rivers?

The three ages of rivers are youthful, mature, and old age. In the youthful stage, rivers are fast-flowing and erode the landscape, forming V-shaped valleys. In the mature stage, rivers meander and deposit sediment, creating floodplains. In old age, rivers widen and meander extensively, eventually forming oxbow lakes.
