Why are reservoirs and groundwater significantly affected during monsoon?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because rainfall can increase storage and recharge

The direct answer is A: rainfall can increase reservoir storage and groundwater recharge. During the monsoon, some rainwater flows into rivers and reservoirs. Some water also enters the soil through infiltration and may replenish underground water stores, especially where the ground is permeable and extraction is controlled. Thus both surface water and groundwater can be affected. Option A correctly states this connected process. Option B is wrong because the sea does not dry up during the monsoon. Option C is absurd; mountains do not disappear. Option D is wrong because air pressure does not end; pressure changes help influence winds but never vanish completely. The word “can” is important because recharge varies by rainfall, soil, rock, land cover and human use. Memory cue: rain fills above ground and recharges below ground.
