Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Arroyo, wadi, and nullah are all terms used to describe dry riverbeds or stream channels that only have water flowing through them during times of heavy rain or flash flooding. Inselberg, on the other hand, refers to an isolated hill or mountain that rises abruptly from a flat landscape. It does not fit the pattern of the other three terms.
