Question

recharge areas are important for groundwater because they help replenish water. what would happen to an aquifer if the recharge area was covered with impervious surface material?
without recharge, the aquifer would intersect the surface and form springs.
more and more water would flow into the groundwater area due to increased rainfall.
over time, the aquifer could dry up due to all surface water running off into streams or rivers.
too much water would cause the groundwater to burst out of the ground.

Explanation:

Recharge areas allow water to seep into aquifers. Impervious surfaces prevent this infiltration. Surface - water would then run off instead of replenishing the aquifer, leading to potential drying up.

Answer:

Over time, the aquifer could dry up due to all surface water running off into streams or rivers.
