Option (1), (3) and (5)

Explanation:

The groundwater refers to the flow of water under the surface of the earth. These are fresh water, as most of the water filtrates as it percolates down through the pore spaces in the rocks. These groundwater are then added to the seas and oceans.

The groundwater when mixes with carbon, it forms the Carbonic acid, which is weaker in nature. This acid can break down the water molecules. These water, carrying various ions in it, when flows over some rocks, it dissolves and erodes some particles from it. The carbonate rocks such as limestone are often dissolved by the groundwater due the chemical weathering process, resulting in the formation of caves.

The groundwater also plays an important role in the water cycle process, forming the caves by undergoing chemical weathering process.

Hence, the correct answer are option (1), (3) and (5).

Answer from: michaelhal4271

Groundwater is one of the most valuable sources of freshwater. Options A, C, and E are correct. Groundwater is present underground. The groundwater cause chemical weathering that leads to the formation of the caves.

Groundwater:

It is the water that is in-filtered from the surface and collected in the underground empty spaces.

When groundwater flows beneath the rocks, it dissolves the minerals of the rock and carries them away. This is known as chemical weathering which leads to the formation of caves.The formation of Oxbow lakes of caused by surface water.

Hence, the groundwater is present below the surface. It dissolves the rocks that lead the formation of the caves.

Which of the following scenarios is an example of the bottleneck effect? answers a in south africa, much of the afrikaner population is descended from a small number of dutch colonists. in this population, this is an unusually high frequency of pseudoxanthoma elasticum (pxe), an elastic tissue disorder. b four white-tailed deer are introduced to a park in finland. thirty years after their introduction scientists compare the genes in the population and find that there is no variation. c during the industrial revolution, london's air became filled with soot. as a result, birds started eating more of the lighter moths because they were easier to spot than their darker counterparts. over time, the moth population changed so that there were more darker moths than lighter ones. d 10% of the population of american alligators in an area have the recessive trait albinism. a massive flood results in the death of 80% of the population. of the remaining population, 60% have the recessive trait of albinism.

Recently, crops of vegetables such as lettuce and green onions have been contaminated, while they are still on the farm, with bacteria that cause food poisoning. how will science influence the way the government responds to prevent an increase in food-borne diseases? because science has shown that lettuce and green onions are not nutritionally valuable, the government may pass laws that ban the sale of lettuce and green onions. because science has shown that there is no way to prevent bacterial contamination, the government may pass laws that punish businesses that buy lettuce and green onions. because science has shown that the washing of hands prevent the spread of infectious diseases among people, the government may pass laws that require hand washing by everyone who handles food. because science has shown there are ways to find the source of the contamination, the government may pass laws that require farm practices that reduce the contamination of lettuce and green onions.
