water melting off the _______ mountains formed the colorado river which helped carve
the grand canyon.

○ appalacian

○ rocky

○ andes

○ sierra nevada

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze the geographic context: The Colorado River's source is related to mountain ranges. The Sierra Nevada mountains' melting snow contributes to the Colorado River's formation, which carved the Grand Canyon. The Appalachian is in the east (not related to Colorado River), Rocky has different river systems, and Andes are in South America.

Answer:

D. Sierra Nevada
