<span>When the water level of a stream or river exceedes its natural bank, it has reached its, </span>flood stage
Answer:
Option (1)
Explanation:
Clay is the most porous but least permeable rock.
The porosity is defined as the property of the rock that allows the water to store in its pore spaces. In simple words, it is the measure of the pore spaces that are present in the rock. Whereas the permeability is the property that allows the fluid to pass through the cracks of the rocks and mixing up with the groundwater.
So, in the case of clay, the inter-granular spaces (pore spaces) between the rocks help in trapping the water in them, but they do not allow the water to transmit and get mix up with the groundwater. So, they are the best example of porous rocks.
Hence, the correct answer is option (1).
The oceanic-oceanic convergence formed the mountains on the California coast.
<h3>How was the mountains on the California coast formed?</h3>
It was formed as a small island arcs, deep-ocean sediments and mafic oceanic crust to the western edge of North America which producing a series of deep basins and high mountain ranges.
Hence, the mountains was a series of parallel ranges formed by sedimentary deposition uplifted by faulting and folding.
Therefore, the Option D is correct
