Importance

1- The rivers offer a lot of potential for hydroelectric power production.

2- Nepal is the world's second-richest country in terms of water resources.

3- Many small-scale water mills, industries, and power-stations are situated near the rivers

4- These river harbors a variety of fishes.

sorry I cant find out the fifth one.

Explanation:

Total rivers in Nepal are more than 6000. There are about 6000 rivers (small and big)

Dashing torrents, peaceful lakes, leaping rivers, unique springs, and underground water resources are only a few of them. In Nepal, there are various rivers. Mechi, Koshi, Bagmati, Narayani, Gandaki, Rapti, Mahakali, and many others are the major rivers. The Koshi is Nepal's most important river, followed by the Narayani and the Karnali. The majority of Nepal's rivers originate in the mountains.

The fact is that Nepal is the world's second-richest country in terms of water resources.

River Mahakali:

At its high headwaters, it is a perennial, furious river. This river starts near Indian territory, on the Irom Milan glacier. The riverbed is rocky and sandy, and there is little algae growth. Many small-scale water mills, factories, and power plants are located within the lowland catchment region, resulting in a few contaminants entering the river naturally.  The Mahakali (Sarada) river is home to 69 different species of fish (Shrestha 1990). Fishermen in the Mahakali watershed have perfected a wide range of fishing techniques that are similar to migratory fish runs seen on waterfronts.

River Narayani:

The source of this perennial and violent river is the Himalayan southern slope. The Kali Gandaki, Budi Gandaki, Trisuli, Marsyangdi, Madi, and Seti rivers are among its seven tributaries. During March and April, the pH ranges from 6.7 to 7.5, the water temperature is 18.0 to 28.5°C, and the DO is 7.8 to 13.8ppm (1990-91). The river has a diverse fish biology, with 102 species of fish identified in the Narayani River.

We have to generate enough electricity for all Nepali people by using river water. The river water can also be used for irrigation purposes. Agriculture is the main occupation of Nepali people, so irrigation is of great significance.

Zolol [24]

Answer:

META COMMUNICATION                        

Explanation:

Meta communication can be defined as a secondary communication (including indirect indications) on how to view a bit of information. This is based on the belief that, as in symbolism, the same meaning followed by specific meta-communication can imply something entirely different such as its inverse.

Thus, from the above we can conclude that the correct option is B.

African Review Quiz
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

1.The history of West Africa has been commonly divided into its prehistory, the Iron Age in Africa, the major polities flourishing, the colonial period, and finally the post-independence era, in which the current nations were formed. West Africa is west of an imagined north-south axis lying close to 10° east longitude, bordered by the Atlantic Ocean and Sahara Desert.

Colonial boundaries are reflected in the modern boundaries between contemporary West African states, cutting across ethnic and cultural lines, often dividing single ethnic groups between two or more states. During the Holocene, sedentary farming began to develop in West Africa. The Iron industry, in both smelting and forging for tools and weapons, appeared in Sub-Saharan Africa by 1200 BCE, and by 400 BCE, contact had been made with the Mediterranean civilizations, and a regular trade included exporting gold, cotton, metal, and leather in exchange for copper, horses, salt, textiles, and beads. The Nok culture (1500 BCE - 200/300 BCE) would develop.[1] and vanished under unknown circumstances around 500 AD, thus having lasted approximately 2,000 years.[2] The Serer people would construct the Senegambian stone circles (3rd century BCE - 16th century CE). The Sahelian kingdoms were a series of kingdoms or empires that were built on the Sahel, the area of grasslands south of the Sahara. They controlled the trade routes across the desert, and were also quite decentralised, with member cities having a great deal of autonomy. The Ghana Empire may have been established as early as the 7th century CE. It was succeeded by the Sosso in 1230, the Mali Empire in the 13th century CE, and later by the Songhai and Sokoto Caliphate. There were also a number of forest empires and states in this time period.

Following the collapse of the Songhai Empire, a number of smaller states arose across West Africa, including the Bambara Empire of Ségou, the lesser Bambara kingdom of Kaarta, the Fula/Malinké kingdom of Khasso (in present-day Mali's Kayes Region), and the Kénédougou Empire of Sikasso. European traders first became a force in the region in the 15th century. The transatlantic African slave trade resumed, with the Portuguese taking hundreds of captives back to their country for use as slaves; however, it would not begin on a grand scale until Christopher Columbus's voyage to the Americas and the subsequent demand for cheap colonial labour. As the demand for slaves increased, some African rulers sought to supply the demand by constant war against their neighbours, resulting in fresh captives. European, American and Haitian governments passed legislation prohibiting the Atlantic slave trade in the 19th century, though the last country to abolish the institution was Brazil in 1888.

In 1725, the cattle-herding Fulanis of Fouta Djallon launched the first major reformist jihad of the region, overthrowing the local animist, Mande-speaking elites and attempting to somewhat democratize their society. At the same time, the Europeans started to travel into the interior of Africa to trade and explore. Mungo Park (1771–1806) made the first serious expedition into the region's interior, tracing the Niger River as far as Timbuktu. French armies followed not long after. In the Scramble for Africa in the 1880s the Europeans started to colonise the inland of West Africa, they had previously mostly controlled trading ports along the coasts and rivers. Following World War II, campaigns for independence sprung up across West Africa, most notably in Ghana under the Pan-Africanist Kwame Nkrumah (1909–1972). After a decade of protests, riots and clashes, French West Africa voted for autonomy in a 1958 referendum, dividing into the states of today; most of the British colonies gained autonomy the following decade. Since independence, West Africa has suffered from the same problems as much of the African continent, particularly dictatorships, political corruption and military coups; it has also seen bloody civil wars. The development of oil and mineral wealth has seen the steady modernization of some countries since the early 2000s, though inequality persists.
