Explanation:
A drainage basin is an area where water from precipitation such as rainwater collects before draining into a water body such as a river.
A delta is created where the highest quantity of sediments are deposited at the mouth of a river.
A river's discharge is the quantity of water flowing through a channel in a river.
The headwaters of a river are the source of water of a river, and are usually the farthest point from where it joins/empties into another water body.
Meanders are common feature of A stream with a low to moderate gradient.
A river with a well-developed floodplain has a flat low-lying channel and floods when there is a high quantity of water flowing through the river.
When the framers designed the US Constitution they did not give the Federal government much power so power was balanced between States and Central Government. But the Federal government has gained more and more power over time. At the same time, the States were restricted over the years, when the Framers did not imagine doing so.
Both of these situations can be good or bad. For example, making the States respect the Bill of Rights was a good thing when individuals had their basic rights stripped on a State level. So making only the Federal government respect the Bill of Rights did not make much sense.
At the same time, the Federal Government has shown much power that was not designed and showed a few issues over the years, especially with the Executive Branch that had in a few opportunities overstepped its powers.
