How did the sea get it salt?
salt is formed in the sea by water from rivers and streams washing salt from the ground into the ocean.
How are groundwater and runoff different and alike?
Well, groundwater and runoff both land on Earth as precipitation, but groundwater is water that gets trapped underground by seeping through rocks. You capture this water by wells. Runoff is when precipitation flows from (usually) mountains. The water gets into streams, and streams join to form rivers. The rivers would usually lead to the ocean. Most of the runoff gets evaporated when the water reaches the ocean; only a little-bit of the water in rivers and streams flowing down is evaporated then.
