It drops the material. This is called deposition :)
A delta is a triangular deposit of sediment at the end of a river or stream. It happens when the strong current of the river slows down and deposits the sediments it has been transporting.
Whenever the river slows down it starts to drop sediment. This usually happens when it meets the sea, unless it meanders slowly across a flood plain in its way.
it slows down
An alluvial fan is a fan-shaped deposit that is created when a fast flowing river slows down. Alluvial fans develop where streams issue from canyons onto adjacent valley floors and deposit sediments derived through the erosion of rocks upstream.
Because water slows down and sediment drops to the bottom
As a river flow slows, the sediment starts to settle out. The water at the river's edge often has the lowest flow or movement so there will be more sedimentation.

The heavy material deposited when a river slows down is called sediment. This sediment can include sand, silt, and clay particles that settle out of the water and accumulate on the river bed or banks. Over time, this sediment can build up and create features like sandbars or levees along the river.
This process is known as delta formation. Deltas are formed when a river flows into a body of water, causing the flow to slow down and deposit sediment carried by the river. The sediment is then deposited in a triangular shape, creating a landform known as a delta.
A delta is when a stream or river reaches a large body of water, such as a lake or ocean or stream, it slows down. Most of the sediment drops out, forming a triangular- shaped deposit called delta.- 6th- grade :)
the river current slows down it drops of rocks and gets some dissolved materal it carries on down the river two a shore
