Detailed explanation-1: -Groundwater is the water found underground in the cracks and spaces in soil, sand and rock. It is stored in and moves slowly through geologic formations of soil, sand and rocks called aquifers.

Detailed explanation-2: -Water that has travelled down from the soil surface and collected in the spaces between sediments and the cracks within rock is called groundwater.

Detailed explanation-3: -Ground water is the water located underground that saturates the spaces between alluvial material (sand, gravel, silt, clay) or the crevices or fractures in rocks.

Detailed explanation-4: -Groundwater is water that exists underground in saturated zones beneath the land surface. The upper surface of the saturated zone is called the water table.

Detailed explanation-5: -Surface water is any body of water found on the Earth’s surface, including both the saltwater in the ocean and the freshwater in rivers, streams, and lakes.
