Question

Tributary of river Amazon.

• A. Paru river
• B. Purus river
• C. Parana river
• D. Juruika river

Hint:

When identifying tributaries of major rivers, consider their geographical location and drainage basin. The Amazon River has many tributaries, but only those originating in the Amazon Basin contribute to its flow.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

The Amazon River has several important tributaries that contribute to its vast water flow. Among the given options:
- Purus River is a major tributary of the Amazon and flows through Peru and Brazil.
- Paru River is also a tributary of the Amazon but is less significant compared to Purus.
- Juruika River does not exist as a well-known Amazon tributary.
- Paraná River is incorrect as it is one of the major rivers in South America but flows separately, mainly through Brazil, Paraguay, and Argentina, and is not a tributary of the Amazon.
Thus, the correct answer is Purus River.
