write 1 difference between. food plain and levee, sand dune and loess, tribututary and distributary
Answers
Explanation:
Levees and flood plains are formed when the level of the river is above the level of the land.
Levees are banks on the side of the river which prevent the river flooding into the flood plain.
Levees can be man made - concrete or artificial - mud.
The flood plain is made up often of fertile land which encourages villages but then these can be at risk.
When the river is full, it floods into the flood plain and leaves behind fertile soil.
Answer:
Tributary

2. A tributary does not flow directly into a sea, ocean or lake.
3. Tributaries and the main stream river drain the surrounding drainage basin of its surface water and groundwater.

1. It is completely reverse of a tributary which branches off and flows away from the mainstream.
2. It may or may not fall directly into a sea, ocean or lake.
3. The distributaries normally form a delta or estuary.
