Help!! I'm stuck on this....

Suppose a stream has a low volume but a steep gradient. How might the
stream change the land? Provide your reasoning.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The steep gradient causes the erosion of soil.

Explanation:

  • Steep gradient is the slope of the land where the stream is present or any flow of runoffs.
  • As the slope of stream flowing increases, the velocity of water also increases causing the erosion of soil.
  • It causes the land to get deformed by the sweeping of soil making difficult for plants and grasses.
  • The steep gradient runoffs negatively impacts the aquatic living thing.
