Watersheds, like the one in the image, are areas of land that collect precipitation and funnel it to lakes, streams, and/or wetlands. The erosion caused by this movement of water varies in speed based on a number of factors. Which watershed factor has the MOST impact on the speed of erosion?Plant cover (trees, grasses, etc.) reduces erosion by holding soil in place with roots, and slowing the flow of water.
B) Water erodes hard soil more quickly than soft soil, because it flows faster over hard soil's compacted, slick surface.
C) Water travels more quickly towards rivers than streams (causing more erosion), because they are larger and absorb more water.
D) Precipitation reduces erosion by causing the ground to absorb water, resulting in less surface wear as it travels to lakes and streams.
