Explanation:

The speed of water in a stream is affected by the gradient of the geography. The steeper the geography the higher the speed of the water flow and the higher the erosion capacity of the stream. This means the stream will be narrow and deep. There is also less meandering of the stream.

When the gradient is less steep, the stream flow slows down and so does the erosion force it bears especially on the river bed. This therefore result in a higher horizontal erosion than vertical erosion. The steam becomes wide and shallow. The stream is also more likely to meander.

The volume of water in the stream also affects the size, shape, and flow of streams and rivers. A higher volume of water has more erosion power due to the weight of the water column. The stream is, therefore, more likely to be bigger in size than a stream that carries low water volume.

Scientists studied reproduction in the New Zealand mud snail to answer the question, “Are there benefits to reproducing sexually
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

Sexual reproduction is advantageous over asexual reproduction because it reduces the rate of mutation accumulation.

Explanation:

The main advantage of sexual reproduction is that it increases the genetic variation in the species by creating new combinations of alleles.

However, asexual reproduction produces more offspring, as it is usually a quicker method of reproduction. It also does not require the organisms to socialise to mate.

Sexual reproduction does not reduce the rate of mutation, which is influenced by environmental factors as well as the genome itself.

Sponges have no "true tissues." what does this mean
artcher [175]
<span>Sponges have cellular-level organization, meaning that that their cells are specialized so that different cells perform different functions, but similar cells are not organized into tissues and bodies are a sort of loose aggregation of different kinds of cells. This is the simplest kind of cellular organization found among parazoans.
