नदी आपल्या संपूर्ण प्रवाहात वेगवेगळे भू-आकार निर्माण करत असते. खालीलपैकी कोणता भू-आकार नदी आपल्या वरच्या टप्प्यात निर्माण करत नाही? A river produces various landforms during its entire course. Which of the following landforms is not produced by a river in its upper course ?
1)घळई / Gorge
2)धावक्या (Rapids) / Rapids
3)धबधबा / Water fall
4)सोंगर बाहू / Spur✓ Correct
A 'Spur' (सोंगर बाहू) is a ridge of land projecting from higher ground into a lower one, often formed by differential erosion or interlocking spurs in a river valley, but it is not a direct erosional fluvial feature created exclusively in the upper course like gorges, rapids, or waterfalls.
