***2nd Answerer says: The mighty Mississippi River has many tributaries. So many that it is usually divided into three sections: the Upper Mississippi, the Middle Mississippi, and the Lower Mississippi.

The Upper Mississippi flows about 1150 miles (about 1,500 km) from Lake Itasca in Clearwater County, Minnesota to St.Louis, Missouri. Along the way, it is fed by such tributaries as the Minnesota River, the St. Croix River, the Cannon River, the Zumbro River, the Black River, the La Crosse River, the Root River, the Wisconsin River, the Rock River, the Iowa River, the Skunk River, the Des Moines River, the Crow River, the Chippewa River, the Maquoketa River, the Wapsipinicon River, and the Illinois River.

The Middle Mississippi section begins with it's confluence with the Missouri River, about 200 miles (300 km or so), to its confluence with the Ohio River. Along the way it is fed by the Meramec River and the Kaskaskia River.

The Lower MIssissippi section begins with the confluence of the Ohio River, about 1,000 miles (1,600 km or so), to the Gulf of Mexico. Major tributaries include the White River, the Arkansas River, the Big Black River, and the Yazoo River.
