Answer:

Explanation:

Precipitation is the process of precipitating a substance from a solution.

Infiltration is the process by which water on the ground surface enters the soil.

Run off is the draining away of water from the surface of an area of land, a building or structure. Capillary water is define as water that remains in the soil after gravitational water is drained out.

Transpiration is the process of water movement through a plant and its evaporation from aerial parts, such as leaves, stems and flowers.

Or when a plant losses water in form of water vapour

Evapotranspiration is the sum of evaporation and plant transpiration from the Earth's land and ocean surface to the atmosphere.

Ground water is a Water that collects or flows beneath the Earth's surface, filling the porous spaces in soil, sediment, and rocks.

An aquifer is a body of saturated rock through which water can easily move.

A recharge area is a place where water is able to seep into the ground and refill an aquifer.

Hydrologic cycle also know as the water cycle

It is a process through which water passes from vapour in the atmosphere through precipitation upon land.

Ground water can sometimes be considered as nonrenewable resource because it can be used over and over again and it has a rain cycle.

In anatomical, directional terminology, the esophagus is _________ to the mouth.a.Superiorb.Lateralc.Mediald.Posterior
Margaret [11]

Answer:

In anatomical directional terminology, the esophagus is <u>posterior</u> to the mouth (option d).

Explanation:

The esophagus is a tubular organ that is part of the digestive system and its function is to carry food from the mouth to the stomach. The anatomical relationship of the proximal end of the esophagus, with respect to the mouth, is posterior and inferior, its distal end also being located above the stomach.

This anatomical relationship allows the direction of food movement to be mouth → esophagus → stomach.

It is the most severe form of cortical destruction cerebral bilateral and is considered an extreme form of porencephaly (focal cystic cavity). It mainly affects the territory of the internal carotid artery and middle cerebral artery, with preservation of the territories supplied by the vertebrobasilar arteries. The most accepted etiology is carotid vascular insufficiency, due to multiple causes (bleeding, placental thromboembolism, arteritis, vascular malformations, among others).
