Answer:

D ) it is a model of watershed.

Step-by-step explanation:

It’s a land area that channels rainfall and snowmelt to creeks, streams, and rivers, and eventually to outflow points such as reservoirs, bays, and the ocean.

It is not the water cycle , it is only the part of water cycle.

Therefore, D ) it is a model of watershed.

The correct answer is: Watershed

Step-by-step explanation:
By definition, a watershed is an area of land, such as a mountain or valley, which collects rainwater into a common outlet. As you can see in the picture that the rain water is collected at the big blue vessel on Earth through river or streams of water.

Note: Do not confuse watershed with water cycle! Watershed is one part of the whole phenomenon called Water cycle.
