Which landform results from decreased stream gradient near alluvial planes?

💡 Explanation

Braided streams form due to decreased stream power causing sediment deposition; therefore, several shallow channels branch out, rather than a single channel, because reduced slope reduces transport capacity. Alluvial planes encourage this mechanism.
