Question

5. Explain in a 5-7 sentence paragraph how an aquifer is made, how it used by humans, and why they are so important. Include the words permeable, groundwater, impermeable, and filter in your explanation.​

Answer 1

Much of the water we use for domestic, industrial, or agricultural purposes is groundwater. Most groundwater, including a significant amount of our drinking water, comes from aquifers. In order to access this water, a well must be created by drilling a hole that reaches the aquifer.
