What evidence from the map suggests that the pediment is covered with a mantle of alluvium?

1 answer:

6 0

The evidence is when there is degradation. it is characteristic of channel networks in which either bedrock erosion is taking place, or in systems that are sediment-starved and are therefore entraining more material than is being deposited. When a stream degrades, it leaves behind a fluvial terrace. This can be further classified as a strath terrace—a bedrock terrace that may have a thin mantle of alluvium—if the river is incising through bedrock.

sveta [45]

Answer:

mountain ridges creating natural divides

Explanation:

Natural boundaries acting as controls for water flow and makes them move into oceans are typically mountain ridges. They are geographically called divides.

Water generally flows from regions of high elevations to flat lands and plains.

Oceans the final basin where water from lands flows into. Ocean basins are located at very low elevation and through this potential head, gravity allows all land water to flow ocean-ward.

Mountains are sources of inland water bodies and they control how these rivers flows. Therefore, they act as natural divides that guides rivers into basins.
