Option D, groundwater adds water to lakes, rivers, and oceans, is the right answer.

Water held under the ground in the earth or in vesicles and cracks in the rock is known as the ground-water. Alternatively, the groundwater is the water found under the surface of the earth and in the clefts of rock deposits. The groundwater is usually less expensive, more accessible and less exposed to con-tamination than outside water. Therefore, it is used to meeting the need for public water supplies. Moreover, the groundwater adds water to lakes, rivers, and oceans, which becomes accessible to rural people and other living beings.

Firlakuza [10]

Normally sterilizing food using radiation does not induce radioactivity but sometimes it may change the taste, texture of the food and it may also destroy the nutrients. radiation is used to kill the harmful bacteria and to increase the shelf life. when the radiation is very energetic it alters the food structure but it does not make it radioactive. To become radioactive one has to make a nucleus unstable. ionizing radiation normally cannot do this. FDA has established maximum energy levels for radiation to prevent the treated foods from becoming radioactive. The energy levels of the rays are too low to induce radioactivity in the food. So there is no harm in consuming treated foods.

Gennadij [26K]

Crossing over is a process that happens between homologous chromosomes in order to increase genetic diversity. During crossing over, part of one chromosome is exchanged with another. The result is a hybrid chromosome with a unique pattern of genetic material.

Does wind and weather diverge at the equator?

fgiga [73]

Winds are light at the equator because of the weak horizontal pressure gradients located there. The warm surface conditions result in locally low pressure. ... At this latitude surface high pressure causes the air near the ground to diverge.
