Answer 1

The best answer is; False

Fresh water found in soil and rock layers below Earth’s surface is not called deep water. It is known as ground water. Groundwater is the water that exists below the earth's surface in the cracks and spaces in soil, rock and sand. Groundwater flows to the earth surface naturally and discharges to water bodies such as rivers, lakes and wetlands. Groundwater is usually extracted for municipal, industrial and agricultural uses by extraction wells.
