What is the benefit of allowing rainwater to seep into the ground?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Groundwater recharge

Direct answer: A is correct. When rainwater infiltrates through soil and cracks, some of it reaches underground aquifers. This process is called groundwater recharge. Recharged groundwater can later support wells, springs, household use, and irrigation. In suitable places, infiltration also reduces rapid surface flow. A is correct because it names the direct benefit. B is wrong because infiltration does not produce air pollution. C is wrong because allowing water into the ground does not cause forest removal. D is wrong because seepage is not the removal of soil; excessive surface flow may instead cause erosion. Memory cue: rain entering the ground helps refill underground water stores.
