Answer:

The correct answer is option C, a rushing river

Explanation:

Canyons are formed as of the erosional activities of both wind and water affecting a huge plateau, mountain or hill. These plateaus, mountains, and hills are formed due to tectonic movements.  

During the course of time, snow on the plateau melts and pull down half a million tons of sediments along with it. This sediment carrying river cuts the plateau thereby forming the Canyons

Which of the following is part of a clade believed to have died out, leaving no descendants?
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Paranthropus robustus

Explanation:

2.5 million years ago some autralopithecines were identified by dating fossils from South Africa, meaning they lived a good period of time. Of these, Australopithecus africanus is well known and is a little closer to our species. Other fossils found in excavations in both southern Africa and eastern Africa have been found to be of more recent specimens 2.5 to 2 million years ago. These specimens were classified as Paranthropus robustus and Paranthropus boisei. These australopithecine species became extinct and left no current descendants.
