✳Examinations ✳

❣Young River - the upper course❣

➡️The beginning of a river, when it flows quickly with lots of energy, is called a young river.

➡️The river here is smaller and usually has a rapid, tumbling flow that cuts a narrow channel through rocky hills or mountains.

➡️The fast flowing river can create waterfalls where it carves out layers of soft rock and leaves a cliff of hard rock standing.

❣Middle Aged River - the middle course❣

➡️The middle of a river’s journey, when it gets wider and slows down, is called the middle age.

➡️Rivers often meander (follow a winding path) along their middle course.

➡️The current of the river no longer has the force to carry stones or gravel.

➡️This material drops to the riverbed, where it forms bars of sand or gravel or builds islands.

❣Old River - the lower course❣

➡️When the river reaches the end of its journey, it is called an old river.

➡️The end of the river is called the mouth.

➡️At the mouth, there is often a river delta, a large, silty area where the river splits into many different slow-flowing channels that have muddy banks.

➡️The photograph below show the sediment (mud) that the Darent has brought with it on its journey to the River Thames.
