Best Answer

A river, flows from an underground source, usually a spring under a mountain, and into an ocean or a sea. A sea is a moderately sized body of water. Most seas are a little bit larger than Lake Superior

One, a sea is much bigger and larger, whereas the river is a thin, narrow body of water. A sea is salty, because it is a part of the ocean but a river has freshwater, not salty water.

A river always leads to a sea. The part of a river where it opens into the sea is called the mouth. All of the rivers separate and separate into millions of tiny streams like roots. (this is the other side of the mouth)

A point bar is a depositional feature found on the inside bend of a meandering river, characterized by coarser sediment accumulation due to decreased water velocity. In contrast, a channel bar forms in the middle of a river channel and is composed of sediment deposited within the active channel due to changes in flow velocity or sediment supply.
