Answer:

A. and is likely the basis for the Epic of Gilgamesh and the biblical epic of Noah's Ark.

Explanation:

These are two common stories about the great flood. They were also similar circumstances.

Mediterranean water flowed into the Black Sea through its single connection: the Bosporus Strait.

The Mediterranean water that does inflow mixes with fresher Black Sea water, and as its salinity and density decreases, the Mediterranean water forms plume-shaped features. These plumes flow away from the mouth of the strait and descend until their density matches that of surrounding waters, usually at depths of 100 to 600 meters.

This creates some sort of stormy environment, which is reminiscent of the two religious stories.

1. aquifers
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

I'll assume you have to match the name with their definitions.

1. aquifers

underground water sources  

That's because of the presence of porous rocks that let water pass through them and reach an underground cavern that then acts as a tank.

2. delta  

a broad, triangular-shaped land area at the mouth of a river

That's common especially in larger rivers that meet their destination point (usually the ocean).

3. oasis  

a small fertile area in the desert, usually a place where water is close to the surface (plural - oases)  

We all heard about oases in the desert, where human and animals alike gather to drink.

4. rain shadow  

an area that receives less precipitation because of its location on the leeward side of a mountain

That's common in high mountains region where the mountains are so high they block the passage of clouds to the other side.
