Which is an example of surface water in the hydrological cycle?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Rivers and lakes

Correct answer: B, rivers and lakes. Surface water is water found on or openly flowing across Earth’s surface. Rivers and lakes are visible surface-water bodies, as are ponds, reservoirs, wetlands, and oceans. B is correct because both named examples store or carry water above the ground. A, an aquifer, is a layer or body of permeable underground material that stores and transmits groundwater, so it is not normally classified as surface water. C is wrong because deep rocks are geological material; they may contain water in pores or cracks but are not themselves surface-water bodies. D is wrong because plant cells contain biological water, not an open surface-water reservoir. Memory cue: visible water bodies such as rivers and lakes are surface water; hidden water below ground is groundwater.
