Answer: A)is greater near the source than near the mouth

Explanation: A stream is a small river; a large creek; a body of moving water confined by banks.

Gradient is an area of ground that tends evenly upward or downward.

A stream gradient can be defined as an area of water that that tends evenly upward or downward of the stream and it is measured by the difference in elevation between two points on a stream divided by the distance between the two points that the water actually flows.

The gradient influences the speed in respect to time of the stream. The steeper the gradient, the higher will be the speed of the of the flow.

✨✨What’s 2 differences between the Earths layers and the atmospheric layers? ✨✨
UNO [17]

Answer: The earth layers and atmospheric layers are distinctly different.

Explanation:

The earth layers are made up of solid matter whereas the atmospheric layers are made up of gases.

The earth layers provide the base for the survival of diversity of living beings whereas the atmospheric layers only allow microbes which can survive in extreme temperature conditions.

The stratospheric layer of the atmosphere protects the living beings from the harmful radiations striking on the surface of earth and they are capable of causing mutation whereas the lithosphere or any other surface layer of the earth also absorb thermal energy from sun but does not provide protection against harmful affects of ultraviolet radiations.
