Answer:
The correct answer is that the Mississippi Delta is formed from destructive forces, since it was formed from floods that were traumatically modifying the terrain in its path.
Explanation:
The Mississippi River Delta is the modern land area of the state of Louisiana built by floods deposited by the Mississippi River, as it slows down as it enters the Gulf of Mexico. The delta formation process, during the last 5000 years, caused the coast of southern Louisiana to move to the sea from 15 to 50 miles.
It is a region of biological importance, comprising 12,000 km² of coastal wetlands and 40% of the marshes in the southern states of the United States. It is also a region of commercial importance, supporting the economy of New Orleans with significant maritime traffic, which provides 16 to 18% of the oil supply in the US, and providing 16% of the harvest of fisheries in the US, including shrimp, crabs and crayfish.
