The underground zone where all spaces between rocks are completely filled with water is called the what?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Zone of saturation

Correct answer: B. Below the water table, groundwater occupies the connected pores and fractures in soil and rock; this is called the zone of saturation. “Saturated” means that the voids are filled with water, although the water may still move through permeable material. Above the water table is the unsaturated or vadose zone, where pores contain both air and water, so A describes the opposite condition. C is a surface process involving water changing into vapour and is not an underground storage zone. D is not a standard hydrogeological term and refers incorrectly to air-filled spaces. The water table is the upper boundary of the saturated zone and may rise or fall with recharge and pumping. Memory cue: below the water table, pores are water-filled.
