FLOWING RIVER





What will Maria and Pedro most likely see as a result of the difference in water speed as they float down the river?


The water flows at the same rate on both sides of the river.


The water flowing faster along riverbank B causes less sediment to be eroded.


The water flowing faster along riverbank B causes more sediment to be eroded.


The water flowing slower along riverbank A causes more sediment to be eroded.

Answer 1

c

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The answer is C - the water flowing faster along riverbank B causes more sediment to be eroded

Explanation: since the water is flowing faster on side B than side A, the faster moving water will pick more sediment up for side B. A great example of this is a normal flowing river takes a few months to change a river bank however when there is a storm [faster moving water] the river bank can be changed in a few days.
