Answer:
Wind and moist air is drawn by the prevailing winds towards the top of the mountains, where it condenses and precipitates before it crosses the top. The air, without much moisture left, advances across the mountains creating a drier side called the "rain shadow".
The windward side of the mountain is the side of the mountain that the wind blows into. This side is where all the rain tends to be because of the air cools as it rises, making clouds. The opposite side is called the leeward side. This is where the air sinks, leaving the side much more warm and dry.

The gradient in bed load is mostly made up mostly of gravels and sands, broken down versions of larger boulders and rocks, which are most commonly found in mountainous areas. Streams with low gradients cannot carry bed load down stream because it moves slowly and without much force. Gravels and sands couldn't move downstream because the water flow isn't strong enough to move them or to keep them in motion.
