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.

The human genome codes for 20,000 to 25,000 proteins, but any given cell might produce only 5,000 different proteins. how is thi
Musya8 [376]

This is because not all genes are expressed at the same time, so not all the proteins are present at a certain moment. The mechanisms that cell uses to control gene expression are called regulation of the gene expression. Thanks to regulation of the genes, cells have the ability to increase or decrease the production of specific gene products such as proteins. This property is important for the adaptability of an organism because it allows the cell to express protein when needed.
