Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

"Fluvial" refers to anything related to streams or rivers, so "fluvial landforms" specifically refer to landforms created by water in rivers and streams. Choice A ("peak landforms") and choice B ("saddle landforms") are not related to water or rivers, and while choices D ("floodplain formations") and E ("alluvial fans") are related to rivers, they are not as specific as "fluvial landforms."
