Answer: B. participate in the hydrologic cycle
Explanation: Residence time of water is the rate of water in a water reservoir such as the ocean or the atmosphere divided by how fast more water is added to it or lost from it.
While residence time is thousands of years in oceans, water in the atmosphere has a short residence time of abut 10 – 11 days. This allows it to participate in the hydrologic cycle which includes evaporation and precipitation. Water in the atmosphere precipitates as snow or rain, returning to other water reservoirs.

1. 2. chemicals in the injected fluids can get into groundwater that is used for drinking water;
B). Hydraulic fracturing allows geologists to capture natural gas stored in the pore spaces of shale.
Explanation:
- Fracking is a huge amount of the water that must be transported to sight at a significant environmental cost and occurrence of the minor tremors and is environmentally and potentially dangerous chemicals of they escape during the drilling and pollute the groundwater.
- And the hydraulic fracking is drilling methods used to extract the natural oil and gas from deep inside the earth and is used to study the geology of the earth.
Answer:
