If a river receives water from both snowmelt and monsoon rainfall, what will its flow nature be?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: More perennial

Correct answer: A, more perennial. A perennial river has water flowing through most or all of the year because it receives water from dependable sources. Snowmelt can add water during warmer months, while monsoon rainfall supplies additional water during the rainy season. Having both sources reduces the chance that the river will stop flowing completely in the dry season, although the amount of water still changes with season and rainfall. Option B is wrong because “inland” describes a location or drainage situation, not the continuity of flow. Option C is wrong because tides affect coastal water levels and cannot describe the complete nature of a river supplied by snow and rain. Option D is the opposite of the expected result. This combination of snowmelt and rainfall is a characteristic commonly associated with Himalayan rivers. Memory cue: two water sources usually mean a longer-lasting flow.
