Why do most rivers have wider channels than streams?
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.

The network formed by a river and all the smaller streams that contribute to it is a?
The network formed by a river and all the smaller streams that contribute to it is a watershed or river basin. It represents the area of land where all the water drains into a common river system. These interconnected waterways are vital for supporting ecosystems and facilitating the flow of water throughout the landscape.

What causes a river?
A river is formed when water draining from mountanous terrain or some other watershed flows into a valley via smaller streams. The streams join together and their combined volume of water forms a river with the force of the water cutting a channel as it flows downhill toward a lake, sea, or ocean.
What kind of water does streams and river have?
Majority of rivers and streams have fresh water flowing in them.
What is it called when a rivers brakes up into streams?
It is usually the other way round. Moving in the direction of water flow, streams merge together to form larger rivers, the streams are called the river's tributaries. The point of joining is called a "confluence".
A river and its tributaries?
A river is a large natural stream of water flowing in a channel to the sea, a lake, or another river. Tributaries are smaller streams or rivers that flow into a main river. Tributaries feed water into the main river, helping to increase its flow and volume.
