The correct answer is - rainfall.

The Ogallala Aquifer is a very large aquifer. It traces its origins at the end of the last ice age, where the water from the melting glaciers filled it up. After that initial filling of from the water of melting glaciers, the Ogallala Aquifer has been reliant on the water from the rainfall to fill it, and replenish the lost water.

Since the humans started to use it though, this aquifer has been constantly experiencing decrease in its water levels. The reason for that is that the humans use more water from the aquifer than what the rainfall can replenish, and that is especially a big problem because the aquifer is located in an area where there isn't a lot of precipitation.

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

The Euphrates river

Explanation:

Along with the Tigris, the Euphrates river helped form the Fertile Crescent and the Sumerian civilization.

It starts where the Karasu and Murat rivers merge in eastern Turkey and continues southeasterly for 2800 km (1740 mi) through Syria and Iraq until it merges with the Tigris river at Al-Qurnah. There, it becomes the Shatt al-Arab waterway and empties into the Persian Gulf.

During a hike in Utah's Zion National Park, you pick up a sedimentary rock sample. When you examine the sample with your hand le
eduard

Answer:

Quartz is not pure in this rock.

Explanation:

When quartz shows effervescence in contact with an acid, it means that it is not in its pure state, but rather related to other substances that may be cementing the quartz. This effectiveness is caused by substances that do not react like quartz, such as calcite.

In this case, we can conclude that in relation to the calcium-rich rock shown in the question above, the calcium is not pure, but it is likely to be related to calcite, or other material that does not react to acid.
