The river system is part of the hydrological cycle. This means that whilst the hydrological cycle is a closed system, the river system is an open one, consisting of inputs, transfers, stores, and outputs.
On your diagram, label parts of the hydrological cycle that act as inputs, outputs, transfers and stores (you could colour code them, or give them a symbol)
Collection of water by vegetation
Movement of water through soil
Loss of moisture through plants
