Question

when river waters recede after floods, the uncovered soil is described as
○ polytheistic.
○ domesticated.
○ alluvial.
○ irrigated.

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• "Polytheistic" relates to belief in multiple gods, irrelevant to soil from floods.
• "Domesticated" refers to taming animals/plants, not soil.
• "Alluvial" soil is deposited by flowing water (like rivers during floods), matching the scenario of river waters receding and uncovering such soil.
• "Irrigated" means supplying water for farming, not describing soil from receding floods.

Answer:

C. alluvial.
