It can either be a tributary or a distributary, where a river joins another or separate from one respectively.It is called a confluence. A tributary is a smaller river joining a larger one. A distributary is a river flowing into the sea.
Three words that describe a tributary are "contributory," "flowing," and "subordinate." A tributary is a smaller stream or river that flows into a larger one, contributing to its water flow. It typically runs parallel to the main river, enhancing the overall watershed system.
A smaller river which joins a larger one is called a tributary. If a river branches and later these branches re-connect - as in flowing around around an island - the smaller branch is sometimes called an arm. If the branching occurs near the sea, and the arms don't reconnect, then the arms are referred to as a delta.i like chicken
The term used to describe one river emptying into another is "tributary." A tributary is a smaller stream or river that flows into a larger one, contributing its water to the main river system. The point where the tributary joins the larger river is called the confluence.
A flowing one.
when one stream meets another and they merge together, the smaller stream is known as a tributary.
