Answer Details
African rivers exhibit all of the following characteristics except for "that they have great depths."
Most African rivers have their sources in the interior highlands and flow towards the coast or interior basins. Due to the topography of the land, many African rivers have rapids and waterfalls on their courses. African rivers also exhibit seasonal variations in water volume, with some rivers experiencing a very high volume of water during the wet season and a very low volume of water during the dry season.
However, African rivers are not known for their great depths. In general, African rivers are shallow and wide, with the exception of a few deep gorges and canyons. This is partly because the rivers have a relatively low gradient and slow velocity, which limits their ability to erode the river bed and deepen the channel.
