Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Aquifers are bodies of water-bearing permeable rock or unconsolidated materials from which groundwater can be extracted. The best option is uncemented, loosely compacted sand, as it allows water to flow through easily while still providing enough structure to maintain the aquifer's shape. The other options either have more obstacles for the water to flow through or are too compacted for water to enter and pass through easily.
