Answer:
Every river is part of a larger system—a watershed, which is the land drained by a river and its tributaries. Rivers are large natural streams of water flowing in channels and emptying into larger bodies of water.A tributary is a smaller stream or river that joins a larger or main river.
Features that are typical for the divergent plate boundaries are:
- <em>ocean ridges;</em>
Underwater mountain chains that are very long and are marking the border of the plates.
- <em>formation of new crust;</em>
Since the crust is very weakened and loose, the high temperature, pressure, and magma, are able to penetrate it and create new crust.
- <em>intense volcanic activity;</em>
The high amount of magma penetrating from the mantle layer is causing intense volcanic activity, thus the creating on new crust, and underwater mountain chains.
