Floodplain refers to a region of low-lying land adjacent to a river, produced primarily of river sediments and are subjected to flooding. Thus, floodplain can be correctly matched with a strip of land next to a river that is usually very fertile.  

Bed load signifies towards the particles in a flowing medium, generally water, which is translocated along the bed. The bed load comprises of small or large boulders and moves by sliding, rolling, and/or hopping (saltating). Hence, bed load can be correctly matched with large boulders carried along by a river.  

Suspended load refers to the part of the sediment, which is conducted via a flow of fluid that settles gradually enough like that it almost never touches the bed. It is held in suspension via the turbulence in the flowing water and comprises particles usually of the fine silt, salt, and clay size. Hence, the suspended load can be correctly matched with small rocks carried along by a river.  

Headwaters are witnessed in the upstream of the river, the source of the headwaters is generally its starting point, that is, it can be a marsh fed upstream, or from an underground area. Hence, headwater can be correctly matched with the beginning of a river.

posledela

Answer:

B

Explanation:

It's because excessive exercise is going to lower the person's oxygen partial pressure which will cause the affected RBCs to become sickle shaped. When that happens, the cells link to each other and block capillaries that bring oxygen to the tissues and organs. This might result in congestion or ischaemia that damages the tissue.

A is false because iron is required for haemoglobin production so this shouldn't be a problem.

C has no relevance since it won't affect the person's oxygen partial pressure.

D is not going to lower the patient's oxygen partial pressure.
