States' streams and rivers significantly influenced settlement and development by providing essential resources such as water for drinking, agriculture, and transportation. They served as natural highways for trade and movement, enabling communities to thrive along their banks. Additionally, fertile floodplains supported agriculture, attracting settlers and fostering economic growth. Ultimately, these waterways shaped the infrastructure and urban planning of many regions.

How could each of these changes affect erosión and streams
Rivers and streams are the genesis of life in an ecosystem. Without these rivers and streams, the chain of life cannot be extended. All human and animal life and their derivatives depend on these bodies of water.
If mountain glaciers disappear there will be no source for many mountain streams, which will then dry up. Many rivers will be reduced in size as a result.
how would these resources impact human settlement
Since we have no idea what "this" might be, we can't answer the question properly.
what region has fast moving rivers and streams
Streams and rivers flow down a long path and ponds and lakes stay in one place and not flowing like streams and rivers.
one main primary consumer in streams and rivers are FISH
Both streams and rivers can be considered the trunk of a river system.
Streams are merely tributaries of rivers. A river is the wider channel into which smaller creeks, streams and rivers flow. (Streams do not flow out of rivers.) Streams carry water from higher sources, emptying into the river. As more streams empty into a river, it tends to become broader, simply because of the greater volume of water it is carrying.
Rivers were important to early settlements since they were the main means of transport, and furnished power for early industrial applications.
