What is a Meander?

  1. A type of architectural style.

  2. A curve within a river or channel.

  3. A method for calculating flood risk.

  4. A specific kind of vegetation found along riverbanks.

The correct answer is: A curve within a river or channel.

A Meander is a type of curve found within a river or channel. Option A is incorrect because a meander is a natural formation and not an architectural style. Option C is incorrect because it refers to a method for calculating flood risk, not the actual geographical feature. Option D is incorrect because while vegetation is often found along riverbanks, a meander specifically refers to the winding, curving shape of a river or channel.
