Its bed lies below the water table.
It is replenished by both precipitation and groundwater.
It flows year-round.
In dry climates, it can become a dry wash (also called wadi or arroyo).

Answer 1

Answer: In dry climates, it can become a dry wash (also called wadi or arroyo).

Step-by-step explanation:

An ephemeral stream, also known as an intermittent stream is a water body that has a wet phase and an intermittent period when its flow ceases. This means that it can be an aquatic body in one season and land in another. Ephemeral streams are common in dry regions

It is replenished by only rainfall and little or no groundwater. Their intermittent flow is due to this reason.
