Explanation:

Question 1

Wetlands don't need to be covered in shallow water all year. Some wetlands have seasonal water or saturated soil. So the statement is false.

Bog, Fen, and Swamp are types of wetlands. Substrate refers to the underlying material (like soil, rock) and is not a wetland type.

The image shows groundwater flow (groundwater foe, groundwater labels) and how wetlands contribute to groundwater recharge (water moving into groundwater). Controlling floods, shoreline erosion, and baseflow are different processes. Groundwater recharge matches the image's depiction of water moving into groundwater systems.

Answer:

B. False
