Answer:
A stream in a bedrock valley located 5000 feet above ultimate base level that is draining a mountainous region in the headwater of a stream system would have a _____.
high gradient, and a narrow and shallow channel with no floodplain
Explanation:
A bedrock valley has no alluvium mantling the bedrock over which it flows. Alluvium (consists of sand, gravel, silt, clay, and gravel, as well as other organic matters) mantlings or coverings are usually developed in the lower part of the river with the formation of floodplains and deltas. They may also be deposited at lakes or river banks. Headwater streams deliver nutrients and other organic materials (e.g. fallen leaves) to downstream regions to sustain downstream aquatic life.
The enormous submarine canyon located off the coast of central California in Monterey bay is very well studied for both its geologic and biologic features, as well as being a national marine sanctuary. Thus, "Monterey" is the correct filler to be used here.
<h3>What is a Submarine canyon?</h3>
A submarine canyon is a steep-sided valley that has been dug into the seabed of the continental slope; it can occasionally extend deep over the continental shelf, have virtually vertical walls, and can have canyon walls that are up to 5 km high, like the Great Bahama Canyon. Submarine canyons provide routes for the movement of turbidity currents over the seafloor, just like above-sea level canyons do for the movement of water through land.
Rivers may provide turbidity currents or storms, and undersea landslides, earthquakes, and other soil disturbances may create them on the seafloor. Turbidity currents are movements of water that are thick and sediment-laden. The continental slope is eroded by the swift (up to 70 km/h) turbidity currents that flow downslope.

Answer:
A warm front forms when a warm air mass pushes into a cooler air mass, shown in the image to the right (A). Warm fronts often bring stormy weather as the warm air mass at the surface rises above the cool air mass, making clouds and storms.
