The James River is a river in the U.S. state of Virginia. It is 348 miles (560 km) long,[3] extending to 444 miles (715 km) if one includes the Jackson River, the longer of its two source tributaries.[3] The James River drains a catchment comprising 10,432 square miles (27,020 km2). The watershed includes about 4% open water and an area with a population of 2.5 million people (2000). It is the 12th longest river in the United States that remains entirely within a single statee talking about but there is a James River:

It is an old river with a 2 million year history
hi my name is bob
Yes, a young river typically erodes more than an old river because young rivers have a steeper gradient, higher energy, and are still shaping their course. Over time, old rivers tend to have a more established path with reduced erosional power.
A river is young if it has an oxbow lake. Erosion and deposits of soil cause crescent shaped oxbow lakes along a river and change the river's course.
an older river deposits more sediment.
A young river is very active. It is still at the upper course. It moves at a characteristic high speed that enhances its active down-cutting and under-cutting. Its competence is very high due to its speed. An old river on the other hand is characterised by its materials and also the topography of its course. The old river has lost its competence due to the gradient of its course. The speed is low compared to a young river.
If the river is young it is steep in places and doesn't meander (curve). A mature river isn't so steep and it is starting to form meanders; but be careful because old rivers are completely flat and do have meanders.
a young river A+

James river is NOT the biggest river
The Hudson River is considered mature. It has been flowing for millions of years, resulting in the broad valley and meandering path that characterize mature river systems.
