How does a stream base level affect how it downcuts it channel?
Streams can't erode their channels endlessly. there is a lower limit to how deep can a stream erode. Base level is the lowest point to which a stream can erode its channels.
What are three ways that streams erode their channels?
Stream erode their channels by abrasion, grinding, and by dissolving soluble material.

What is a youthful stream?
A youthful river is a river with a steep gradient that has very few tributaries and flows quickly. Its channels erode deeper rather than wider.
Would raising the base level cause a stream to gain energy or erode?

What determines whether a stream will erode its bottom or its sides?
it erodes on its bottom
How is gravity related to stream's ability to erode and deposit materials?
by wind
How does gravity relate to a stream's ability to erode and deposit materials?
The gradient of a stream effects the energy as it has eroding soil and rock. This happens because depending on the pressure of the water flow, it can erode soil and rock.
