Question

What is tributaries and distributors

Answer 1

Tributaries are those ‘relatively smaller’ rivers which get merged with a major/bigger river. A river many have a number of tributaries on its course of travel towards the Ocean/Sea.

As it reaches ‘old stage’ - reaching the plains and nearing the ocean, it deposits all the silt, sand and finer materials (coarse materials are deposited in its previous stages - mountains and slopes) which would block it's own way and hence it travels in number of different channels close to the ocean. This feature is called distributory and it's a typical feature of a delta - where the river mixes with the ocean.

Answer 2

Answer:

Tributaries are the rivers which join the main river and distributary is the other branch of the river when it splits.
