A aquifer is the underground layer which is composed of water-bearing rocks. Sandstone, sands, gravel, and other sedimentary rocks are examples of water-bearing rocks. They are permeable and have openings that gases and liquids can pass through. In a water cycle, a water will be added to the aquifer during the precipitation.
