Answer:

The answer to the question is:

  • Aquifers may form due to weathering and erosion.

Step-by-step explanation:

Aquifers are the volume of water that is not reincorporated into the water cycle due to its minimal evaporation under the subsoil, its creation in areas with porous rocks is due to the fact that once the rainwater falls on the ground and filters, reaches and it is embedded in the pores of the rock, performing two effects:

  1. Eroding the rock from within and enlarging the pore size.
  2. Evading the water cycle since it does not reincorporate as water vapor.

Therefore, after a certain time and the repetition of the previous processes, an aquifer with a considerable volume of water is produced.
