Answer 1

Hint Krishna River is the fourth biggest river in terms of its water inflows and river basins in India. It is also called Krishnaveni.

Complete answer:
Amravati is not a tributary of the Krishna River. It is the longest tributary of the Kaveri River in the districts of Karur and Tirupur, Tamil Nadu state, located in Southern India.
This river is almost about 1,288km long and is also called Krishnaveni. It is one of the major sources of irrigation for Maharashtra, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana.
The largest tributary of the Krishna River is the Tungabhadra. It has a drainage basin measuring 7running for about 531 km but the longest tributary is the Bhima River, which makes a total run of 861 km. It has an equally large drainage area of 70,614 km2
Three tributaries namely Panchganga, Warna and Yerla meet Krishna river near Sangli. These places are considered holy.
A large area near the Krishna river holds quite a rich flora and fauna. The last surviving Mangrove forests in the Krishna estuary are known as the Krishna Wildlife Sanctuary. This sanctuary is home to a large number of people and migratory birds. Fishing cat, otters, Estuarine crocodiles, spotted deer, sambar, black buck, and snakes are some of the animals which can be spotted in the sanctuary. The sanctuary supports rich vegetation.

Note: It originates at an elevation of about 1,300m in the Western Ghats of Mahabaleshwar, in Maharashtra in central India.
