How would a reduction in friction in a stream channel affect the streams velocity?
As water in the stream channel flows, it encounters friction; the friction slows the forward movement. The shape,size, and roughness affect the amount of friction. High friction slows the stream significantly.
How can the shape of a river stream bed affect the rivers speed and its power to cause erosion?
A wider and shallower river stream bed tends to slow down the river's speed as frictional forces increase with more contact with the bed. This can reduce the river's power to cause erosion. Conversely, a narrower and steeper stream bed can increase the river's speed, which enhances its erosive power by allowing it to carry more sediment and erode the riverbanks more effectively.

Does the rivers velocity affect the rivers bed load shape and size?
Faster river velocities are capable of carrying greater amounts of bedload and transporting them farther and faster. The shape of the sediments of the bedload would therefore be exposed to more physical weathering which would progressively round the sediments and also decrease their size.
How does the shape of a stream valley compare to the shape of a glacial valley?
A stream valley typically has a V-shape, while a glacial valley has a U-shape. This difference in shape is due to the different erosional processes involved. Stream valleys are eroded mainly by flowing water, while glacial valleys are shaped by the movement of glaciers that scrape and pluck rock and sediment.
How do rivers shape landscapes?

Which animal has a stream like body shape?

What affects stream erosion?
Stream erosion can be influenced by factors such as the volume and speed of water flow, gradient of the stream channel, presence of sediment or boulders, vegetation along the banks, and geology of the area. Human activities such as deforestation, urbanization, and construction of dams or levees can also significantly impact stream erosion.
