Answer:
An aquifer is an underground layer of water-bearing permeable rock, rock fractures or unconsolidated materials (gravel, sand, or silt). Groundwater can be extracted using a water well. ... If the impermeable area overlies the aquifer, pressure could cause it to become a confined aquifer.
Aquifers come in two types which are shown below: unconfined and confined. Unconfined aquifers are those into which water seeps from the ground surface directly above the aquifer. ... Instead, water seeps into confined aquifers from farther away where the impermeable layer doesn't exist.
