Answer:

<em>The correct option is A) sandstone aquifer</em>

Explanation:

Groundwater can simply be described as water which is present inside the Earth's surface in structures called aquifers. Aquifers are materials which have an ideal porosity and permeability which allow water to flow through them. Aquifers  are materials like sand, silt or rocks.

Sandstone aquifers can trap waste particles like bacteria while allowing the water to easily flow. Hence, they can be used for sewage from a ruptures septic tank.

VladimirAG [237]

Plants have the fewest similarities with the other two groups of organisms.

<h3>Plants vs animals</h3>

Plants generally comprise all living organisms that have chlorophyll and are able to manufacture their own foods by photosynthesis.

Animals, on the other hand, are living organisms that cannot manufacture their foods and are mobile. Animals are either vertebrates or invertebrates.

Plants qualify as living organisms because they are able to feed, excrete, reproduce, grow, respond to stimuli, die, and carry out other basic characteristics of living organisms.

After soaking for one hour in a solution of unknown concentration, a slice of potato appears to be very soft and limp. you can d
MAVERICK [17]

If the potato slice becomes soft and limp after soaking for one hour in the solution, the solution is hypertonic.

<h3>What is a hypertonic solution?</h3>

In biology, a hypertonic solution is a solution with more solute concentration than it is found in the sap of any other cell placed in it.

Such solutions have lower water potential than the cells placed in them. Thus, water will readily move by osmosis from the sap of the cells into the solution.

Cells that are placed in hypertonic solutions, therefore, usually end up becoming flaccid as a result of water loss.

So, if after soaking for one hour in a solution whose concentration is not known, a slice of potato becomes soft and limp, it means the solution is hypertonic.
