Question

Groundwater flows from zones of low pressure to zones of high pressure.


Groundwater does not flow but stays in one location until pumped upward.


Groundwater moves downward by gravity and from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure.


Groundwater circulates in a convection current manner.

Answer 1

I am pretty sure that the statement which is true about groundwater flow is: Groundwater moves downward by gravity and from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure. I choose this one because if fluid moved from low pressure to high it would not make any sense, just think about it and you will agree with me. Hope it helps! Regards.
