The world of social media is a strange and wondrous place. It's a world where you can connect with people from all over the globe, share your thoughts and opinions, and maybe even go viral if you're lucky. But let's be real, it's also a world filled with endless cat videos, oversharing, and drama.
One of the most interesting things about social media is the way it's changed the way we communicate. We've gone from long, thoughtful emails to quick, abbreviated messages with emojis and acronyms. And don't even get me started on the whole hashtag phenomenon. It's like we're all speaking a different language now.
But there are also some downsides to this constant connection. It's easy to get sucked into the world of social media and forget about the real world around us. We're so busy scrolling through our feeds that we forget to enjoy the little moments in life. And let's not forget about the pressure to present the perfect life online. It's like we're all in a competition to see who can be the most popular, the most successful, the most enviable.
Despite all of this, I have to admit, I'm still a fan of social media. It's a great way to stay connected with friends and family, and I've even made some new friends through various online communities. Plus, let's face it, sometimes you just need a good laugh at a ridiculous meme.

Read the passage and answer the questions that follow.

The drainage systems of India are mainly controlled by the broad relief features of the subcontinent. Accordingly, the Indian rivers are divided into two major groups: the Himalayan rivers and the Peninsular rivers.
 

Apart from originating from the two major physiographic regions of India, the Himalayan and the Peninsular rivers are different from each other in many ways. Most of the Himalayan rivers are perennial. It means that they have water throughout the year. These rivers receive water from rain as well as from melted snow from the lofty mountains. The major Himalayan rivers are the Indus, the Ganga, and the Brahmaputra. These rivers are long and are joined by many large and important tributaries. A river along with its tributaries may be called a river system. The two major Himalayan rivers, the Indus and the Brahmaputra originate from the north of the mountain ranges. They cut through the mountains making gorges in the upper course. The perennial Himalayan rivers have long courses from their source to the sea. They perform an intensive erosional activity in their upper courses and carry huge loads of silt and sand with their swift current. In the middle and the lower courses, these rivers form meanders, oxbow lakes, levees,  and many other depositional features in their floodplains as their speed slackens. They also have well-developed deltas.
 

A large number of the Peninsular rivers like the Godavari, Kaveri, and Krishna are seasonal, as their flow is dependent on rainfall. During the dry season when it doesn’t rain, even the large rivers have reduced flow of water in their channels. The Peninsular rivers have shorter and shallower courses as compared to their Himalayan counterparts. However, some of them originate in the central highlands and flow towards the west. Most of the rivers of peninsular India originate in the Western Ghats and flow towards the Bay of Bengal.

Question:

The drainage systems of India are controlled by:

Option 1: relief features

Option 2: erosional activity

Option 3: tributaries of rivers

Option 4: depositional features
