D Correct answer
Explanation

Radial drainage patterns develop on dome-shaped landforms where streams flow outward in all directions from a central high point, like spokes on a wheel. This pattern is characteristic of volcanic domes, upraised domes, or anticlinal structures. Very flat areas develop dendritic patterns, and altitude alone doesn't determine drainage pattern.
