Assertion (A) : In the upper course, the main work of the river is erosion. 

Reason (R) : River flows swiftly in the upper course.

  • A.Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
  • B.Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A.
  • C.Both A and R are false.
  • D.A is false but R is true.

Answer: A

Correct answer: Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

In its upper course a river is steep and swift, so it cuts downward and carves gorges and V-shaped valleys; the sluggish lower course deposits instead. The speed of flow is exactly why erosion dominates upstream. Both are true and R explains A.
