The correct answer is option 1: Hwang-Ho. The Chinese river known as the Yellow River is often referred to as the Hwang-Ho. The Yellow River is the second-longest river in China and holds great significance in Chinese history and culture. It is called the Yellow River because of the large amount of yellow sediment it carries, which gives the water a yellowish appearance. The river has played a crucial role in shaping the civilizations and agriculture in the region. It has also been prone to frequent flooding, which has resulted in significant challenges and changes in the surrounding areas over the centuries.
