Question

2 how does water become groundwater? a it evaporates from surface water into vapor b it flows inland from oceans to aquifers c it descends through layers of soil and rock d it starts in snow melt and flows in streams

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Groundwater is formed when surface - water seeps through soil and rock layers. Evaporation turns water into vapor (A is wrong). Oceans are not the main source of groundwater inflow in this way (B is wrong). Snow - melt in streams is surface water, not how it becomes groundwater (D is wrong).

Answer:

C. It descends through layers of soil and rock
