Solution

The true statement about an ephemeral stream is: "In dry climates, it can become a dry wash (also called wadi or arroyo)."

Ephemeral streams are those that only flow after precipitation events and they do not have the water table as their source. They are not replenished by groundwater and do not flow year-round. In dry climates, they can indeed become a dry wash, also known as a wadi or arroyo.
