Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In humid regions, the highest discharge occurs downstream as the river has received contributions from various tributaries and has undergone considerable runoff and infiltration. As water traverses downstream, its discharge tends to increase, resulting in significantly higher flows beyond the river's midpoint. Therefore, option B is the correct choice.
