Is formed when sediment is deposited where a river flows into an ocean?
A "Delta".
What sediment deposited where a river flows into a ocean or lake?
A delta.
What is formed when sediment is deposited where a river flows into an ocean?
You could be thinking of a delta or abyssal plains.
Why does a delta often forms where a river empties into the ocean?
A river ends its journy when it flows into a body of water such as a ocean or lake. Because the river water, such as an ocean or lake. Because the river water is no longer flowing downhill, the water slows down. Which makes sediment drop to the bottom. Sediment deposited where a river flows into into an ocean or lake builds upa landform called delta.

How does Delta form?
As a river flows it picks up sediment and carries it away. When the river reaches the ocean the sediments deposited, over time a delta forms.
When the flow of a river slows is the sediment deposited?
Yes, when the flow of a river slows the sediment is deposited.
Deltas are build up by?
sediment depposited where a river flows into an ocean or lake
when the flow of a river does what the sediment is deposited?
The flow of water slows enough for the silt to be deposited.
What is in a delta?
A delta is a body of sediment deposited at the mouth of a river or stream where it enters an ocean or lake.
