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.

Which organisms have the least amount of stored energy in an ecological pyramid
Alenkinab [10]
<h2>Answer</h2>

Tertiary Consumers get least amount of the energy.

<h2>Explanation</h2>

In an ecological pyramid less energy is available to organisms in the upper level because each organism releases some of the chemical energy as food and to the air as thermal energy .Therefore primary consumers get almost 10% of autotrophs prduced energy. The second consumers in the pyramid get 1% from primary consumer. In the case of tertiary consumers, they get only 0.1%. Hence the top consumer of a food pyramid receives the least energy.
