Q.

Recharging of water table depends on –

A. amount of rainfall
B. relief of the area
C. vegetation of the area
D. amount of percolation
Answer» B. relief of the area
Explanation: The water table may vary due to seasonal changes in precipitation, evapotranspiration, topography and structural geology. In undeveloped regions with permeablesoils that receive sufficient amounts of precipitation, the water table typically slopes toward rivers that act to drain the groundwater away and release the pressure in the aquifer for the relief of the area.
