Answer: a. Dendritic

Explanation:

A dendritic drainage pattern is the most common form and looks like the roots of trees branching pattern. It is a drainage pattern in which streams branch in many directions randomly at different angles as well. It develops in regions that have underlying homogeneous material. This means the subsurface geology has a similar resistance to weathering resulting in no seeming control over the direction the tributaries take. It is produce in streams that receive several tributaries that are fed by smaller ones. Tributaries link up a larger stream at acute angle ( angle less than 90 degrees). It can be indicated when streams flow across horizontally and complex crystalline rock/homogeneous strata help in resisting erosion uniformly.

There has also been an increasing stream of work on the interactions between human societies and physical environments—long a central concern for some geographers, as illustrated by Clarence Glacken’s magisterial treatment of Western interpretations of nature in Traces on the Rhodian Shore: Nature and Culture in Western Thought from Ancient Times to the End of the Eighteenth Century (1967). Human abuse and despoliation of the environment are important themes introduced in their modern context by a pioneering American conservationist, George Perkins Marsh, in Man and Nature (1864), but they were minor concerns among most geographers until the late 20th century.
