A stream is termed a braided stream because instead of having one main channel there are many parallel branches of the stream flowing near each other, forming a inter-weaving system of stream branches that resembles hair weaving in and out in a braid.
A braided stream is a stream that has small channel capacity with respect to its sediment supply. Basically, there is not sufficient room within the stream valley to deposit all of the sediment and therefore, small islands of sediment form within the stream giving it a braided appearance. Braided streams generally occur at high gradients.

u have to give me the answer
A dry riverbed is formed after many years where a braided stream used to be. This causes the land to appear carved out and creates large rough areas in the landscape.
Braided
One circumstance in which braided streams form is at the end of a glacier where there is a large seasonal variation in dicharge.
It's called a hair styles.
Braided
The braided markings on the end of an alluvial fan are created by multiple channels of a river or stream diverging and recombining as they deposit sediment across the fan surface. These braided patterns indicate the dynamic and shifting flow of water across the fan during flooding events.
A stream or river called that flows into a larger stream or river is called a tributary.
A small stream is called a creek.
The side of a stream is usually called its bank.
