Match List I with List II and select the correct answer using the code given below the Lists: <br> \begin{array}{|l|l|} \hline \textbf{List I (Drainage Pattern of River)} & \textbf{List II (Feature)} \\ \hline \text{A. Insequent} & \text{1. Whose direction of flow is controlled by the rock structure} \\ \hline \text{B. Consequent} & \text{2. No apparent reason why it follows the path it takes} \\ \hline \text{C. Subsequent} & \text{3. Flow in the same direction as the consequent stream but at a lower level} \\ \hline \text{D. Resequent} & \text{4. Whose course is determined by the original slope of the land} \\ \hline \end{array} <br>Code: A B C D

  1. A. 2 1 4 3
  2. B. 2 4 1 3 ✓
  3. C. 3 4 1 2
  4. D. 3 1 4 2

Correct Answer: B. 2 4 1 3

Explanation

A consequent stream follows the initial regional slope (B-4). A subsequent stream is guided by the underlying rock structure (C-1). An insequent stream develops with no apparent reason related to slope or structure (A-2). A resequent stream flows in the same direction as the consequent but forms later at a lower level (D-3).
