How does groundwater collect?
Under the ground, in an aquifer.
Compare surface water and groundwater?
Surface water refers to lakes, rivers and other bodies of water. It is usually filled with fish and other animals. Groundwater is the water that lies under the ground.
What is under ground heat called?
"geothermal"
Which igneous rock cooled slowly under ground and contains mostly quartz and potassium?
Granite
What is a groundwater system?
"Groundwater flow is the movement of water that travels and seeps through soil and rock underground. Stored in cavities and geologic pores of the earth's crust, confined groundwater is under a great deal of pressure. Its upper part is lower than the material in which it is confined. Unconfined groundwater is the term for an aquifer with an exposed water surface."
What is water trapped under ground called?
They are called groundwater. Far as I know, there is no specific name separating ground water in shallow water table and the ground water in confined aquifer. So you might have to called by the full description "groundwater in confined aquifer layer". Aquifer is the specifics name for porous rock and earth media in the question.

artesian

What is the term of water under the ground that is a primary source of drinking water?
Groundwater The depth at which soil pore spaces or fractures and voids in rock become completely saturated with water is called the water table. Groundwater is recharged from, and eventually flows to, the surface naturally. Groundwater is also often withdrawn for agricultural, municipal and industrial use by constructing and operating extraction wells.
