Most rivers vary significantly in length and water volume, with some being quite long and carrying substantial amounts of water, such as the Amazon or Nile. However, many smaller rivers and streams exist that are indeed short and carry less water. The characteristics of a river depend on various factors, including its source, the landscape it traverses, and local climate conditions. Thus, while some rivers are short and carry little water, it is not accurate to generalize this for all rivers.
Rivers and oceans are bodies of water that can carry large objects such as logs, debris, and even ships due to their depth, volume, and current flow. These water bodies have the capacity to transport heavy items over long distances.
when you are strong enough to carry the water for a long distance you do it its not about age
Water vapor is transported primarily through the process of evaporation from bodies of water such as oceans, lakes, and rivers. Additionally, water vapor can be transported through atmospheric circulation patterns such as winds, which can carry moisture-laden air over long distances.
From lakes and rivers and (much later) wells.
Wind, water, ice, and gravity are the main forces that carry sediment. Wind can transport fine particles over long distances, while water can move sediment through rivers, streams, and ocean currents. Ice can transport sediment when it freezes into glaciers, and gravity can cause landslides and rockfall to move sediment downhill.
Pipes and buckets.
There is not enough water in all the rivers to replace the water in the oceans.
The Ohio River is 981 miles long.
Xylem cells are the long tubular cells that carry water and minerals from the roots of a plant to the rest of the plant. These cells are specialized for water transport and provide structural support to the plant.
they help carry water from long distances
Eroded material is carried by water, wind, or ice to new locations by the process of erosion. Water can carry sediment down rivers into oceans, wind can transport sand and dust over long distances, and ice can move rocks and soil as glaciers advance and retreat.
Rivers and streams are composed of fresh water which freezes at 32o F or 0o C, so if the water gets colder than that, it will freeze. Salt water freezes at a lower temperature (which is why salt is used to melt ice).
