How does a stream typically change as it flows from its headwaters to its mouth?

Silts and clays drape floodplains away from channels. As one moves along a stream in the downstream direction: Discharge increases, as noted above, because water is added to the stream from tributary streams and groundwater. As discharge increases, the width, depth, and average velocity of the stream increase.

i believe so yes mindblown

a is the answer i believe.
