Answer:

The correct answer is A. Unlike surface water, groundwater is also responding to pressure in addition to gravity.

Explanation:

A groundwater aquifer is a saturated underground earth formation that may consist of permeable or unstructured rocks (gravel, sand or lime). The water is stored and circulated through these materials. This water can be extracted using wells, mines and other catchment systems.

When the permeable rock where water accumulates is located between two impermeable layers, it is called a confined aquifer. In this case, the water is under a higher pressure than the atmospheric one.

Mountain ranges are created at ______ <br> boundaries between tectonic plates
inessss [21]
Mountain ranges are created at convergent or destructive boundaries between tectonic plates. Convergent margins are formed when two tectonic plates move towards each other. When this happens the crust is folded and faulted upwards into impressive mountain ranges called fold mountains. Notable fold mountain ranges include the Andes, Alps and Himalayas. These mountains are formed at continent to continent collision and ocean to continent convergence.
