Fill in the blanks with the appropriate answers:
A.People obtain groundwater through −−−−−− and −−−−−−.
B.Three forms of water are −−−−−−,−−−−−− and −−−−−−.
C.The water-bearing layer of the earth is −−−−−−.
D.The process of water seepage into the ground is called −−−−−−.
Solution
A chemical substance that is colorless, odorless, tasteless, transparent is water. Its chemical formula is H2O that consists of one oxygen and two hydrogens. It is present on earth in three states that are solid, liquid, and gas.
Complete answer:
As we know that water is everywhere, it moves through the water cycle. It follows from one place to another. In this cycle evaporation, transpiration, condensation, precipitation, infiltration, and runoff are taken part.
Evaporation - It is a type of vaporization in which liquid converts into gas.
Condensation - When a gas state of water changes into liquid it is called condensation.
Precipitation - It is the product of water vapor that falls from the cloud.
Transpiration- when evaporation happens from plant leaves, stem, and flowers.
Infiltration - In this process groundwater enters the soil.
a) Ground is obtained from tube wells and hand pumps.
b) Form of water is Ice, water, and vapor
c) Water bearing layer of earth is the aquifer
d) Infiltration
These are the correct answers to blanks.
Note: 71% portion of the earth is covered by water. The water cycle is also called a hydrologic cycle or hydrological cycle. During the water cycle energy also exchanges due to temperature change. During the evaporation, the environment becomes cool while the condensation environment becomes warm.
