If a river's water increases in monsoon and decreases in summer, it resembles which type of river?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Rain-fed peninsular river

The direct answer is A: a rain-fed peninsular river. River flow depends mainly on its source of water. Monsoon rain-fed rivers receive much water during the rainy season, so their level and flow rise in monsoon months. When rainfall stops, less water enters the river and its flow decreases in summer. Thus the seasonal pattern in the question matches A. B, a permanent glacial river, is less suitable because snow and glacier melt can provide water even outside the monsoon, giving a more regular flow. C is wrong because tides are the periodic rise and fall of sea water, not the main explanation for a river becoming full during monsoon. D is not a normal geographical river category here; lava flows from volcanoes and do not behave like ordinary seasonal rivers. Exam cue: seasonal flow usually means rainfall dependence.
