Question

Waterways have been developed on a commercial basis in the Amazon River.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

The Amazon basin is the largest drainage basin in the world, with an area of approximately 7,050,000 square kilometres (2,720,000 sq mi). The portion of the river\'s drainage basin in Brazil alone is larger than any other river\'s basin. The Amazon enters Brazil with only one-fifth of the flow it finally discharges into the Atlantic Ocean, yet already has a greater flow at this point than the discharge of any other river.'
