2. A rectangular drainage pattern develops on a strongly jointed rocky terrain.Open in App
Solution
The correct option is B Only 2 is correct
In a trellis pattern the river forms a net like system and the tributaries flow roughly parallel to each other. It develops where sedimentary rocks have been folded or tilted and then erodedRectangular drainage is marked by right angled bends and right angled junctions between tributaries and main stream. It usually develops on rocky terrain that are of approximately uniform resistence to erosion.
Thus the correct answer is option B.
