Answer:
<u>D. Gradient decreases, discharge increases.</u>
Explanation:
- As steam is a body of water that carries rock particles and dissolved ions, discharge is measured in terms of volume/time (m3/sec). So when a river discharges its flow from a headwater to its mouth the velocity increases in the downstream direction.
- Thus the river load-carrying capacity increases downwards and so does the discharge rate. The discharge rate can also be influenced due to the rainfall patterns, volume of water and velocity of flow.
- Rock types also impact the streamflow if it is a porous rock, the surface will absorb more of moisture content and comparative more will be the water penetration towers the mouth of the flow.
I believe the answer is A, but Im not 100% I hope this helps!
South Africa's location makes it a key spot for renewable energy in the forms of wind, hydroelectric and solar, as it is on the peninsula of the continent it has access to many of these rich resources. There is also a great deal of industry in South Africa, particularly in the mining of metals, as one of the country's largest exports. This extraction uses huge amounts of energy in the process and most of this equipment used in the extraction pumps toxic gases and chemicals into the atmosphere, if SA uses more renewable energy sources, the levels of pollution will decrease.
The answer that is being described above is SPAIN. This is the country that sent explorers so they can take control of the lands in the south and west of Mississippi river because of the gold deposits, as well as farming and ranching. Hope this answers your question.
