1. Indiana's Lost River ....... underground for a distance of 22 miles

Explanation

The correct answer is "travels" because the sentence is describing the action of Indiana's Lost River, which is a singular subject. Therefore, it requires a singular verb form, which is "travels." The verb form "traveling" is a gerund and cannot be used as the main verb in this sentence. "To travel" is an infinitive form and does not agree with the subject. "It travels" is the correct form to indicate that the river is the one doing the action of traveling underground.
