What do the Krishna and Godavari rivers indicate about the slope of the Deccan Plateau?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The slope is towards the east

The direct answer is A: the slope of the Deccan Plateau is towards the east. Rivers normally flow downhill, so their direction gives a useful clue about the general slope of land. The Krishna and Godavari rise in the Peninsular region, move eastward across the plateau and finally enter the Bay of Bengal. Therefore, the land generally falls from west towards east. Option A is correct because it connects river flow with the eastward slope. Option B is wrong because these rivers do not flow only westward into the Arabian Sea. Option C is wrong because their overall course is not towards the north. Option D is wrong because a plateau may be elevated but it still has a slope. Exam cue: east-flowing Krishna and Godavari indicate an eastward Deccan slope.
