Question

Typically, higher-order streams contain ________ water than lower-order streams.

Answer 1

Typically, higher order streams contain MORE water than lower order streams.
Stream ordering is a mean of classifying natural channels in a water shed based on their sizes. The first order stream is the smallest stream and the second order stream is bigger than the first. Thus, the amount of water in the first order stream  will be less that that of second order.<span />
