Test Description: Water test questions 2020
Instructions: Answer all questions to get your test result.
1) An (aquifer-well) is a body of rock or sediment that stores groundwater.
A
aquifer
B
well
2) An unconfined aquifer is usually closer to Earth's surface where precipitation seeps down from above. The upper surface of an unconfined aquifer is called the water (table-source).
A
source
B
table
3) Confined aquifers are often found (above-below) unconfined aquifers.
A
above
B
below
4) Groundwater is a (insignificant-significant) source of drinking water.
A
significant
B
insignificant
5) If water cannot flow freely, an aquifer has a (low-high) permeability.
A
high
B
low
6) Surface water comes from (transpiration-precipitation) such as snow and rain.
A
transpiration
B
precipitation
7) An ocean (stream-current) is a constant flow of water along a path in the ocean.
A
current
B
stream
8) If the current is at, or near, the ocean surface, it's called a (deep-surface) current.
A
deep
B
surface
9) The Coriolis effect is the (reflection-deflection) of moving objects from a straight path because of Earth's rotation.
A
reflection
B
deflection
10) Water near the surface of the ocean around the equator is usually (warmer-colder) than water in other parts of the ocean.
A
colder
B
warmer
11) Warm water is (less-more) dense than colder water.
A
less
B
more
12) When the surface water moves away from the shore, it is replaced by cold, nutrient-rich water from the deep ocean. The movement of deep ocean water to the surface is called (undertow-upwelling).
A
undertow
B
upwelling
13) Three factors that affect surface currents are the wind, continental deflection, and the (Borealis-Coriolis) effect.
A
Coriolis
B
Borealis
