Answer
1- Young rivers are channels that are deeper than they are wide, have a very fast flow, and contain frequent waterfalls and rapids
2- Ridges are sharp, valleys are steep sided, and the landscape has maximum relief. Old age. The valley walls wear down, the river creates a broad flood plain, and begins to meander, or develop wide bends.
