The Nile is a river that ends in a delta. The small channels that split off the main river channel through the delta plain are called distributaries.
The River Channel is just before the the river meets the mouth or sea.

Deltas typically consist of three main parts: the progradation zone (where sediment is deposited), the distributary network (where the river splits into smaller channels), and the delta plain (the area where the river meets the ocean). Each part plays a crucial role in shaping the delta's unique ecosystems and landforms.
Deltas form where rivers meet the ocean because the river's sediment load slows down and settles due to the decrease in water velocity caused by the ocean's tidal movements and waves. This accumulation of sediment creates landforms with various distributary channels that fan out like the Greek letter delta, giving rise to the name.
