In which area would surface water most effectively infiltrate into the local groundwater system?
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

Option B is correct.

Explanation:

Infiltration depends greatly on the features of the soil. If the soil has excessive clay or mud, water will not find a way into the groundwater system and will remain as surface water.

An alluvial fan is a perfect location for this since there will be little or no resistance to the flowing water. The streams are already a connection with the groundwater system, and falling water will flow directly to it.
