Rivers in general are natural features. Their path takes them through a variety of landscapes with differing geology. This geology may cause slope changes leading to rapids, waterfalls an gorges. Where these features occur or the river becomes to shallow, navigation is not possible.
they are both water bodies.also some of the the rivers are non-navigable and navigable
The Danube, the Elbe, the Rhine, the Volga, and the Seine rivers are some examples.
"Navigable" refers to some thing that can be traveled along by people. It usually refers to lakes and rivers.

Not really. In the south, during the rainy season, there are some rivers that can take very small watercraft.
The rivers of Peninsular India are not suitable for navigation as they flow swiftly over the plateaus and highlands.The rivers in South India are rain-fed and dry up in the hot and dry season. The peninsular rivers of the south have their source in the Western Ghats and flow across hills making a number of waterfalls, which are not navigable, but provide Hydro-electricity.
Most rivers in Jamaica are not navigable due to their shallow depths, swift currents, and rocky beds. While some rivers, like the Black River, allow for limited navigation for small boats and canoes, many others are unsuitable for larger vessels. Additionally, the rivers often feature waterfalls and rapids, which further hinder navigation. Overall, the river systems in Jamaica are primarily used for ecological and recreational purposes rather than for extensive navigation.
Only Danube is a navigable river. Also on the Black Sea litoral exist some harbours.
Yes. Some parts of the river west of Teddington have been canalised, but the river is navigable beyond Oxford.
Only in some rivers.
Several rivers in Ghana are not navigable due to factors such as shallow waters, which prevent larger vessels from passing; the presence of rapids and waterfalls, which create obstacles for navigation; seasonal variations in water levels that can lead to dry periods; and significant sedimentation, which can limit water depth and create hazardous conditions. These factors collectively hinder the ability of boats and ships to travel effectively along these waterways.
