Answer 1

Answer:

In general, Groundwater is located underground in vast aquifers and must be pumped out of the ground after drilling a deep well. Surface water is found in lakes, rivers, and streams and is drawn into the public water supply by an intake.

Some of the factors responsible for water degradation are-

1. Dumping

2. Sewage water

3. Industrial waste

4. Oil pollution

5.Acid Rain

6. Global warming

7. Eutrophication.

OR

Groundwater is contained in wide aquifers and after digging a deep well, it must be drained out of the ground. In reservoirs, rivers and streams, surface water is drawn into the public water supply by an intake.

In a river, lake or other ground, surface water is present. The water is not very high in mineral content, and is often referred to as soft water even though it is probably not.

Groundwater is water that is trapped in or through a soil or rock subsurface layer. There are many ways that refill groundwater supplies, including rain that soaks in the soil, underground disappearing rivers and the melting snow.

The causes responsible for water degradation are acid rain, sewage and waste water, oil pollutants, industrial waste, dumping etc.
