“the aquifer” is like water under the ground and usually conceptualize it as a large underground lake or stream. This is probably due to the fact that most people are familiar with large bodies of water in the form of rivers and lakes. Many people refer to “streams” of water under the ground. hope this can help you :)

Aquifers help citizens of Oklahoma by providing water to areas of the state with little rainfall.

An aquifer is an underground layer of water placed between rocks. Oklahoma counts on a network of aquifers under great portion of the state. This state has six important aquifers which provide water to different areas of it. These include: the Central Oklahoma (Garber-Wellington) Aquifer, the Vamoosa-Ada, Rush Springs, the High Plains Aquifer, Antlers Aquifer, and Elk City Aquifer.
