Which outcome results from floodplain silt deposition inhibiting drainage?

A)Swamp or marsh formation
B)Accelerated river meandering
C)Braided channel development
D)Increased sediment transport capacity

💡 Explanation

Swamps result because *aggradation* from vertically accumulated deposits impede regional watershed drainage pathways. Therefore, areas become waterlogged and marsh or swamps form, rather than leading to significant channel adjustments.
