Explanation / Answer

9)discharge, gradient, and sediment load

Discharge: The volume water exiting the stream (high or low).

Gradient: The stepness of a stream channel.

Sediment load: Type of sediment carried by the load.

10)B. point bar

A point bar may be a depositional feature product of alluvial deposit that accumulates on the within bend of streams and rivers below the slip-off slope.

11)Zone of saturation

The water zone, or zone of saturation, is that the space in AN geological formation, below the water level, within which comparatively all pores and fractures area unit saturated with water.

12)b)floodplain

The portion of drainage basin that is covered by transported sediment that was deposited in or near a stream channel.

13)c)renewable

Any material or energy that can be cycles or can be replaced with in the human period.

14)d)trees

A tree is a finite set of nodes together with in afinite set of directed edges that define parent child relationship.

15)c)Fossil photosynthesis

Natural source that is made from once living organic matter that is changed in to coal, oil and natural gas.

16)a)Enriched uranium

Uranium is not a fossil fuel but all the other four are natural resources.

17) b)sedimentary rock

A rock formed by layers of materials that has been squeezed and hardened

18)Alberta
