Question

Which of these terms refers to a place where water is available in the desert

Answer 1

Answer:

The term 'Oasis' is used to refer to the place where water is found in the desert.

Explanation:

• In the hot arid deserts there is an extreme scarcity of water. Abundant sources of water like rivers or lakes are impossible to find in biomes like deserts.

• The only source of freshwater in deserts is 'oasis'. Oasis are small ponds of freshwater particularly found in the deserts.

• When the winds cut through the layers of sand, the water stored in the depths of the ground is surfaced and tiny ponds named oasis are formed.
