How did the Nile River floods differ from those of Tigris and Euphrates?
The Nile River floods were predictable and gentle, bringing fertile silt for agriculture, while the floods of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers were unpredictable and often destructive, leading to the development of complex irrigation systems in Mesopotamia to manage the water. The Nile floods were caused by summer rains in Ethiopia, while the floods in Mesopotamia were due to winter snowmelt in the mountains.

Are bedrock channels more likely to be found near the head or near the mouth of a stream?
Bedrock channels are more likely to be found near the head of a stream where the gradient is steeper and erosion processes are more active. As the stream flows downstream and the gradient decreases, the likelihood of encountering bedrock channels decreases as well.
Would a young river erode more than an old river?
Yes, a young river typically erodes more than an old river because young rivers have a steeper gradient, higher energy, and are still shaping their course. Over time, old rivers tend to have a more established path with reduced erosional power.
