Answer:

At the bend of a stream, "erosion" occurs on the outside of a meander bend and "deposition" occurs on the inside of the meander bend.

Explanation:

The speed of the flowing water escalates with the increase in the distance and downward inclination.

On the outer side of the meander, the water hits the bend with greater speed owing to the distance available for its maneuver.

While on the inner side of the meander, the speed of the flowing water is comparatively low owing to the stumbling block offered by the bend.

Through gradual erosion and deposition, the meander intensifies and gets cut out from the stream to form a separate water body known as 'Oxbow' lake.
