Answer:

A confined aquifer is found between two impermeable layers.

Explanation:

The roof of this aquifer and its base are made up of permeable rocks. Regardless of its size it will always be full (saturated) with water. In this storage the water pressure at the top of the saturation is much greater than the atmospheric pressure at that same point. By this factor, when opening an artesian well there is a large volume of water being pumped out of the aquifer. In this classification of aquifer, the process of contamination is very slow, but there is a great difficulty to reverse this situation. These confined aquifers have the so-called indirect recharge that are always located in the middle of the sedimentary basins.

The answer is

<span>Aquifers are underground layers of rocks which contain water and serve as important sources of freshwater. They are located below the water table and in the saturated zone. If an aquifer becomes trapped between two impermeable layer (for example, one below and one above that overlies the aquifer), the pressure act on the aquifer and it can become a confined aquifer.</span>

Radiometric dating ______.
aleksklad [387]

Answer:Radiometric dating allows us to indirectly date fossils up to billions of years old based on minerals in surrounding volcanic strata. The correct option is D.

Explanation:

Radiometric dating was first used by geologist after being published by Bertram Bollywood in 1907. During volcanic eruption, some minerals ( carbon) are trapped within the volcanic strata. These minerals are made up of radioactive isotopes which are unstable as they form decay products with a known constant rate of decay. This enables them to :

- access information about the absolute age of rocks,

- date a wide range of natural and man-made materials

- know even the age of earth. I hope this helps. Thanks

solniwko [45]

The same rabbit population being constant because the food supply is greater in the spring and supporting a larger number of animals is a false statement.

<h3>What is Population?</h3>

This is defined as the total number of organisms in a particular place at a given period of time.

Factors such as topography, human influence are other factors except food supply which influences rabbit population which is why False is the correct choice.
