Question
Answer the following question in one or two paragraphs
Describe the course of a river.
Solution
The river passes through three courses from its source to mouth – upper, middle, and lower. The upper course generally lies in mountains where land is steep and the river flows very fast. At the middle course, the river speed decreases as plains have gentle slope. The flow of the river is nearly halted at its mouth (where it meets the sea or ocean).
